The bee sucks the pollen from the flower, and flowers can make too much pollen so it can die. The bee also transfers pollen to other plants, which allows the plants to seed and spread.


Can gametes transfer pollen between flowers?

Pollen can be carried from flower to flower by several pollinating agents such as bees, wasps, flies, hummingbirds. Some plants self pollinate. Humans trying to create hybreds can pollinate with a Qtip.


Can some plants use their own pollen to produce seeds?

How does pollen get from plant to another?

What is the function of the pollen tube?

The pollen tube of most seed plants acts as a conduit to transport sperm cells from the pollen grain, either from the stigma (in flowering plants or angiosperms) to the ovules at the base of the pistil, or directly through ovule tissue in some gymnosperms (conifers and gnetophytes).

How does a plant transfer pollen from the anthers to the stigma?

Well first off some type of animal must transfer it to another flower. Such as a bee, a bee will fly to the flower for nectar (which is meant to lure animals into the flower) and will get some pollen on it's body (that is why it is a fine powder) When a bee goes to another flower some of the pollen will transfer from its body to the other flowers stigma. Hope this answer was helpful. :)


How is the pollen of plants with colorful flowers usually dispersed?

Pollen is dispersed in several ways. Some plants are wind pollinated and the pollen for these is dispersed into the air (e.g. grasses) Some plants use insects (e.g. bees) to transmit their pollen form one flower to the next (e.g. lavender) Some plants use animals (e.g. bats) to transport pollen from one flower to the next (e.g. the Kapok tree) Some plants use birds (e.g. humming birds) to transport pollen from one flower to the next (e.g. the Hibiscus plant)


What is the sweet liquid made by some flowers that help in the transfer of pollen by birds and bees?
