Solution

The correct option is D Wind
Flowers pollinated by wind are generally small, colourless and not very attractive.

Wind pollinated flowers usually have an ovary consisting of a single ovule and the flowers are small and packed into an inflorescence.

Biotic agents such as birds and insects may destroy such small flowers having only one or a few ovules.
