Question

How would you know whether a flower is adapted for self pollination and cross pollination.

Answer 1

Plant species that is hermaphrodite or bisexual having both male and female reproductive structures present in the same plant are adapted for self pollination. While in case of cross pollination, male and female reproductive parts of flower are present on different plants of same species. So they need any vector for transmission of pollen from male to the stigma of female that is present in another plant.
