Solution

The correct option is A True
Pollination is the transfer of pollen from a male part of a plant (anthers) to a female part of a plant (stigma), enabling later fertilisation and the production of seeds, most often by an animal or by the wind. Pollination is a very important part of the life cycle of plants. Entomophily or insect pollination is a form of pollination whereby pollen of plants, is distributed by insects. A major role of the insect is that of pollinator, meaning they transfer pollen from plant to plant (or sometimes within the same plant), which results in the development of a seed.
So the given statement is true.
