Solution

The correct option is C pollination
The transfer of pollen from the anther to the stigma of a flower is known as pollination.
If the pollen lands on the stigma of the same flower or on the stigma of another flower of the same plant, it is called self-pollination.
When the pollen of a flower lands on the stigma of a flower on a different plant of the same species, it is called cross-pollination.
