Solution

Insect-pollinated flowers:

  1. Flowers that are pollinated by insects have enormous, vivid, fragrant, and colorful petals that attract insects to the flower.
  2. On the inside of the flower, close to the receptacle, they have nectar as well.
  3. Insects will therefore enter the flower and can help with pollination by scraping pollen grains off the anther onto the insect, which will then transfer them to the stigma of another flower.

Final answer: The brightly colored flowers are usually pollinated by insects.
