Question

Pollen grains are produced in large quantity in wind-pollinated flowers

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Wind pollination:

1. In wind pollination pollen grains are carried by the wind.
2. In wind pollination, pollen grains are light and dry and are produced in large numbers.
3. Pollen grains of wind-pollinated flowers are produced in large quantities to make sure that at least some pollen grains reach the stigmas of other flowers and successful pollination takes place as many pollen grains are wasted.
4. Stigma is large and feathery to catch the wind pollen grains.

Final answer: The given statement is true.
