Answer 2

The correct answer is option (d). Birds.

• Ornithophily is affected by birds.
• The pollination of flowering plants by birds is called ornithophily, or bird pollination.
• This is referred to as a "coevolutionary association" that is derived from bee pollination.
• It is particularly widespread in tropical and subtropical areas.
• The constant availability of nectar-rich flowers, which provide a food reserve for nectarivore birds, enables bird pollination.
• Bottle brush, red coral tree, and silk cotton are some of the examples of ornithophilous plants.
• The flowers that undergo cross pollination performed by birds are usually brightly coloured: red, orange, yellow, or blue.
• Ornithophilous flowers generate a large amount of nectar to attract birds.
