Question

Regarding the cross-pollination, which of the following statement is incorrect?

• A.
  Plants use two abiotic and one biotic agent
• B. Majority of plants use abiotic agents for pollination
• C.
  Production of enormous amount of pollen grains is concerned to compensate uncertainty and loss of pollens
• D.
  Pollination by wind is more common among abiotic pollinations

Answer 1

The correct option is B Majority of plants use abiotic agents for pollination

Plants use two abiotic (wind and water) and one biotic (animals) agent to achieve pollination.
Majority of plants use biotic agents for pollination.
Pollination by wind is more common among abiotic pollination.
To compensate for this uncertainties and associated loss of pollen grains, the flowers produce enormous amount of pollen when compared to the number of ovule available for pollination.
So, the incorrect statement is 'majority of plants use abiotic agents for pollination'.
