everytime a bee or butterfly gets on a flower it collects pollen so when they fly around the pollen falls off.
What else can I help you with?
What does pollinated flower provide to the pollinator?
Usually the pollinator gets nectar from the flower, also surplus pollen.
Is a humming bird a pollinator?
Yes, they do carry pollen from flower to flower.
Some flower only open at night What does tell you about the pollinator?
That the pollinator is nocturnal, something like a moth or a bat
Is a daffodil a self-pollinator or a cross-pollinator?
NARRATOR: The daffodil is called an entomologists flower because insects transfer the pollen from one flower to another. In their quest for food, insects brush against anthers and stigmas, effectively cross-pollinating the flowers.
What is an organism that carries pollen from one flower to another called?
A pollinator.
Which animal do you think would make the best pollinator for the trumpet flower?
A bird
Why do flower petals wither after fertilization occurs?
The sole purpose of the flower is to attract a pollinator. Once the flower has done it's job it is superfluous so is discarded to save energy.
What allows plants to reproduce sexually while remaining stationary?
Pollinators allow for sex between plants. A host (usually an insect) called a pollinator will go from flower to flower collecting or eating nectar. This is the plants pay to its pollinator because upon leaving the flower the pollinator will have sperm (aka pollen) attached to its body and it will transport it to another flower where the pollen will germinate. Not all plants have flowers, many plants rely of wind dispersal of pollen (think grasses) while others require water (think ferns).

What does pollinator?
What Does Pollination Mean?Pollination means , once the plant has grown and produced flower's, it may be pollinated.
What process results in pollinators that are specific to a particular type of flower?
Co-evolution is the process through which pollinators become specific to a particular type of flower. Over time, certain traits of the flower attract specific pollinators, leading to a mutually beneficial relationship where the pollinator receives a reward (such as nectar) and the flower is successfully pollinated. This specialization can enhance pollination efficiency and reproductive success for both the pollinator and the flower species.
How does the anther cap in an orchid help it?
The anther cap in orchids plays a crucial role in pollination by protecting the pollen and facilitating its transfer to pollinators. It covers the anthers, which contain the pollen, and often adheres to them until an insect visits the flower. When a pollinator lands on the flower, the anther cap can release the pollen, allowing it to attach to the pollinator’s body. This specialized mechanism enhances the chances of successful cross-pollination, which is essential for the reproduction of orchids.
