Define Entemophily

</strong><strong>\boxed{\fcolorbox{white}{pink}{Answer:}}

Entomophily or insect pollination is a form of pollination whereby pollen of plants, especially but not only of flowering plants, is distributed by insects.

\boxed{\fcolorbox{white}{pink}{Question:}}

Define Hydrophily

\boxed{\fcolorbox{white}{pink}{Answer:}}

Hydrophily is a fairly uncommon form of pollination whereby pollen is distributed by the flow of waters, particularly in rivers and streams. Hydrophilous species fall into two categories: Those that distribute their pollen to the surface of water.

Define Anemophily

\boxed{\fcolorbox{white}{pink}{Answer:}}

Anemophily or wind pollination is a form of pollination whereby pollen is distributed by wind. Almost all gymnosperms are anemophilous, as are many plants in the order Poales, including grasses, sedges and rushes.

Define Myrmecophily

\boxed{\fcolorbox{white}{pink}{Answer:}}

Myrmecophily (/mɜːrməˈkɒfɪli/ mur-mə-KOF-il-ee; literally "ant-love") is the term applied to positive interspecies associations between ants and a variety of other organisms such as plants, other arthropods, and fungi.

______

1. Entomophily

  • Many plant species are pollinated by insects, a method of pollination known as entomophily. Bees are one of the most common groups of insects that are important for the pollination of flowers but there are also many other species of insects that are important around the world such as ants, flies, butterflies and wasps.

2.Hydrophily.

  • Rare form of pollination in which pollen is carried to a flower by water. It occurs by one of two methods. In Canadian pondweed (Elodea canadensis) the male flowers break off and float downstream until they contact the female flowers. In Zostera, a marine species, the filamentous pollen grains are themselves carried in the water

3. Anemophily

  • Wind pollination is also called anemophily. Almost all gymnosperms are anemophilous including grasses, sedges, and rushes. Other examples include oaks, chestnuts, alders, etc.

4.Myrmecophily

  • Myrmecophily is considered a form of indirect plant defense against herbivory, though ants often provide other services in addition to protection.
