Solution

The characteristic features of wind-pollinated flowers:

  1. A large amount of pollen is formed so that the pollination can occur properly.
  2. The flowers formed are generally unisexual, dull-colored, and odorless.
  3. The flowers possess a sticky stigma so that pollen can bind easily.
  4. Small light pollen grains are generated so that they can be transferred by the wind easily.
  5. Flowers that are developed from this pollination generally do not have petals.
