Solution

Pollination:-

  1. Transfer of pollen grain from the anther to the stigma of the carpel is called pollination.
  2. Pollinations can occur either within a flower or between flowers of the same plant or flowers of different plants.
  3. There are two kinds of pollination:
  1. Self-pollination: This type of pollination occurs when pollen grains from the anther fall directly onto the stigma of the same flower.
  2. Cross-pollination: It is a complex type of pollination that involves the transfer of pollen from the anther of one flower to the stigma of a different flower.
