What Are The Characteristics Of Wind Pollinated And Insect Pollinated Plant?
Pollination is the phenomenon in which spores produced by plants are transferred.Different plants have different means of transferring spores. Among them are wind pollinated and insect pollinated plants. They have certain features. Wind pollinated plants are those whose flowers produce spore that are light in weight so that they can be carried easily through air. Other feature of these plants is that they should have flowers that contain anthers above the carpel so that they could have maximum contact with air. Insect pollination is another mean of pollination. Such plants which use this mean have bright color petals and produce nectar to attract as many insects towards them, so that their spores attach to their wings or body.
