Solution
The correct option is A Allogamy
- Autogamy is also known as self pollination in which pollen grains are transferred from the anther to the stigma of the same flower or another flower on the same plant.
- Allogamy is also known as cross pollination in which pollen grains are transferred from the anther to the stigma of the flower borne on a separate plant of the same species.
- Chasmogamy is the condition in which flowers are bisexual and they have exposed anthers and stigma so that both self pollination and cross pollination can occur.
- Cleistogamy is the condition in which flowers never open. Pollen from the anther fall on the stigma of the same flower and thus, only self pollination can occur in cleistogamous flowers.
So, the correct answer is B.
