Types of Pollination
Plants having flowers depend on pollination for reproduction. There are two types of pollination:
- Self Pollination
- Cross-Pollination
Pollination
Pollination is the biological process by which pollen from the male part of the flower transfers to the female part of the same or on different flowers. Pollination results in fertilization and the production of seeds. Pollination is important for the reproduction of plants. Pollination can occur in different ways, such as through the wind, water, or animals such as bees, butterflies, and many more. However, some plant species are self-pollinating or do not require pollinators to reproduce.
