Question

Fertilisation can not take place in flowers, if pollination does not occur because

• A. Without pollination male and female gametes can not come closer.
• B. Without pollination gametes can not be formed.
• C. Pollination causes flying of ovum to the pollen.
• D. All of the above.

Answer 1

The correct option is A Without pollination male and female gametes can not come closer.

• Pollination is the process by which the pollen is transferred from the anther or male part to the stigma or the female part of the plant.
• As the two, male and female gametes are closer now, it can now result in fertilization.
• Usually, plants rely on animals (biotic agents) or the wind (abiotic agents) to pollinate them.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A), 'Without pollination male and female gametes can not come closer.'.
