Answer 2

The correct statement about wind pollinated plants are- a.) Stamens and stigmas are outside the flower, with small petals.

• The plants in which wind acts as a pollinating agent are called wind pollinated plants. Their stigma and stamens have special features to ease pollination.
• Stigma and stamens are outside the flower. The stigma of these plants is large and feathery so that pollen grains are easily trapped. Wind pollinated plants have small or no petals.
• The pollen grains are light and small that helps them to be easily carried by wind.
