Why do flowers pollinated by wind produce lots of dry pollen? (simple answer)
Answers
Answer:
The pollination or pollen grain dispersal takes place by the wind agent is called as anemophily. Explanation: The wind pollinating plants produce numerous light weighted pollen grains so that they can easily be blown by the air and may cause cross-pollination between different plants belonging to the same species
Answer:
At least one part of the reason is that moisture is heavy. Wind pollination requires that pollen be light enough to be blown from flower to flower by relatively gentle breezes. The heavier the pollen, the more likely it will fall to the ground and fail. I suppose there could be pollens with “wing-like” structures to help it stay aloft longer to compensate for a higher weight, but I know of no such pollens.
