Question

Which type of pollen grains are found in insect pollinated flowers? 

Options

• Smooth and light

• Large and sticky

• Light and rough

• Heavy and coloured

Answer 1

Large and sticky

Explanation:

Because the pollen grains on the insect-pollinated bloom are sticky, big, and heavy, they adhere to the insect's body more readily. The pollen grains are also few in number since there is a good chance that insects may visit another flower, increasing the likelihood that they will land on the stigma. As a result, there is no requirement for the large-scale manufacture of pollen grain.
