How grasses are pollinated?

Grasses are primarily wind-pollinated, meaning their pollen is carried by the wind from one plant to another. Grasses do not rely on insects or animals for pollination, as their flowers are typically small, inconspicuous, and lack attractive features like nectar or bright colors. This wind-driven pollination method allows grasses to easily spread their pollen over long distances to increase genetic diversity.

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.


Why don't wind pollinated flowers are not colourful?

They don't need to be. Color is one method used by insect pollinated plants to attract the insects. Wind pollinated plants such as Grasses and Pine trees don't need to attract pollinators. The male flowers simply release the pollen on to the breeze on a "hit or miss" basis.


Why are grass flowers not brightly coloured?

because, they are mainly wind pollinated and don't require bright flowers to attract insects
