Petals are both wind pollinated and insect pollinated, not one or the other. Insect pollinated petals are large and brightly colored while wind pollinated petals are small and brown or green in color.

If a plant has a sticky stigma is it wind or insect pollinated?

A plant with a sticky stigma is more likely to be insect-pollinated. The stickiness of the stigma helps to capture pollen grains brought by insects. Wind-pollinated plants typically have feathery stigmas to catch pollen grains carried by the wind.

Which type of plant causes more hay fever insect pollinated or wind pollinated?

Wind-pollinated plants are primarily responsible for causing more hay fever than insect-pollinated plants. This is because wind-pollinated species, such as grasses, trees, and some weeds, release large quantities of lightweight pollen into the air, which can easily be inhaled by people. In contrast, insect-pollinated plants tend to produce heavier, stickier pollen that is less likely to become airborne and cause allergic reactions. Therefore, individuals with hay fever are more affected by pollen from wind-pollinated plants.

If some flowers are not pollinated by insects but by wind Do you think such flowers are as attractive as insect-pollinated ones?

Wind-pollinated flowers tend to be less showy and colorful compared to insect-pollinated flowers which are often brightly colored and fragrant to attract insects. However, the structure of wind-pollinated flowers is specialized for efficient wind dispersal of pollen, which is important for their reproduction. So, while they may not be as visually attractive to us, they are still well-adapted for their method of pollination.
