Question

Explain different types of pollination.

Expert Solution
Step 1

The transfer of pollen grains from the anther (male flower) to the stigma of a female flower is called pollination. Pollen grains are not able to reach stigma on their own and need some external agents for pollination. There are three forms of pollination that are Anemophily, Hydrophily, and Entomophily. The agents of pollination are water, wind, and insects.
