Solution

The correct option is B attract
Flowers pollinated by insects usually have adaptations to attract insects. They have bright coloured petals, produce fragrance and nectar. Insects get attracted to the nectar and they come to collect it. When this happens, the pollen grains are dusted on the body of the insect and they get transferred to the stigma of other flowers when the insect goes to collect nectar from there.
