Those which supply the bird with sugary, syrupy, sweet substances. That is the birds' food supply, but it has to reach deep into the flower with its specially elongated and curved beak. In so doing the bird helps the flower because the flower "dusts" the birds with pollen which is then passed on to the same kind of flower. This "pollination" is the first stage in the production of more plants .

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.
Describe gregor mendels experiment with pea plants?
Gregor Mendel's pea plant experiment allowed him great control, as pea plants can self-pollinate or cross-pollinate, and he was able to pollinate them at will. He studied the characteristics of each plant he would cross-pollinate, perform the pollination and plant the resulting seeds, then study the characteristics of the resulting plants.
Mendel obtained his P generation by allowing the plants to?
Cross-Pollinate
Will a marigold cross pollinate with an African daisy?
No they are to totally different types of plants, Marigold = Tagetes and African Daisy = Diamorphotheca. In order for them to cross-pollinate they have to be compatible at least at a genus level
The petals of a flower have no reproductive function?
This is correct, if you discount the fact that many insects which pollinate plants are attracted to them by the petals.
Can a mouse pollinate a plant?
It's very unlikely for a mouse to pollinate plants because mice are not nectar feeders.Some bats are nectar feedars, and hummingbirds are, and these would pollinate the flowers they visit.

What kind of animals pollinate flowers?
Bees, butterflies, moths, and other insects help pollination. Bats and hummingbirds also help pollinate some plants. This is why it is so important that humans help the pollinators by planting the best types of plants so that we have food for ourselves.
