Solution

Answer: (C) Petals
Petals are the most colourful and attractive part of a flower. Their main function is to attract insect pollinators like bees, butterflies, wasps, etc. These natural pollinators are capable of transferring the pollen grains from one flower to anotehr, mostly resulting in cross pollination.
