Solution

The correct option is D Sunlight
Plants that bear flowers need to get pollen from either their own flowers for self-pollination or from other plants of the same species for cross-pollination to occur. However, pollen can't move on its own, so animals or the wind (and water in rare cases) move the pollen for plants. Sunlight is in no way connected to pollen transfer.
