Question

what is pollination ? write two different between self-pollination and cross-pollination

Answer 1

Answer:

• Pollination: is the act of transferring pollen grains from the male anther of a flower to the female stigma. The goal of every living organism, including plants, is to create offspring for the next generation. One of the ways that plants can produce offspring is by making seeds.

• Cross-pollination: is the transfer of pollen from the anther of one flower to the stigma of another flower on a different individual of the same species.

• Self-pollination: occurs in flowers where the stamen and carpel mature at the same time, and are positioned so that the pollen can land on the flower's stigma.

Self pollination : The transfer poem grains from the anther of flower to the stigma of same flower or of another flower born on same plant is called self pollination.
