Answer:
Pollinating agents are animals such as insects, birds, and bats; water; wind; and even plants themselves, when self-pollination occurs within a closed flower. Pollination often occurs within a species. When pollination occurs between species it can produce hybrid offspring in nature and in plant breeding work.

- Pollinating agents are called pollinators.
- Pollinators can be abiotic, i.e. nonliving or biotic, i.e. living.
- Abiotic pollinators are wind and water. Water is usually used only for few aquatic plants like seagrasses.
- Biotic pollinators refer to various animal species (Mammals, Reptiles, Birds, and Insects).
- Insects are the most common of them. Beetles, Bees, Moths, and birds are examples of biotic pollinating agents.
