What is the transfer of pollen to stigma called?

The transfer of pollen to the stigma of a flower is called pollination. The transfer of pollen is called pollenation.


What is the dust like particles produced in the anthers of flowers called?

The dust-like particles produced in the anthers of flowers are called pollen. Pollen contains male gametes that are necessary for plant reproduction when they are transferred to the stigma of a compatible flower.


Where is the pollen in the tall bearded iris?

The pollen on a tall bearded iris is typically found on the anthers, which are the male reproductive structures located at the tip of the stamen. The anthers release the pollen grains, which are then carried to the stigma for pollination to occur.


Which part of the plant contains the pollen grains?

Flower> Stamen> Anther> Pollen grains.


What is the difference between self-pollenation and cross-pollenation?

self pollination means transfer of pollen from the anthers to the stigma of the same flower. Cross pollination means transfer of pollen from the anthers of one flower to the stigma of another flower.


Why are there a greater number of anthers than stigma?

One reason is the the pollen (from anthers) need to travel to the stigma - either on the wind or carried by insects. Many pollen grains will get lost enroute so lots more need to be produced.


What is the part of the flower that insects feed on?

They feed on the pollen that is produced by the anthers and the pistil


What is the primary function of the anthers on lily flowers?

The primary function of the anthers on lily flowers is to produce and release pollen. Pollen contains the male gametes needed for fertilization when it comes into contact with the stigma of the same or another flower.


What happens when pollen is moved from the anthers to the stigma?

Pollen grains contain the male gamete (sex cell).


Why is the stigma a different height than the anthers?

The stigma is typically positioned at a different height than the anthers to minimize the chances of self-pollination. By having the stigma situated higher or lower than the anthers, it reduces the likelihood of pollen from the same flower fertilizing the ovules, promoting outcrossing and genetic diversity. This separation helps increase the chances of pollination by pollen from a different plant, enhancing genetic variability in the species.


What can anthers produce?

The anther produces pollen grains which would be transferred to other plant's stigma which will receive the pollen grains when an insect fly pass it then the pollen grains will be stuck on its wings.


What are the parts of flowers involved in fertilization?

The female parts of the flower are the ovary, eggs, pollen tube, pistil, and stigma. The male parts of the flower are the stamen, anthers, and pollen. The eggs of the flower are kept in the ovary; pollen from other flowers' anthers and stamens is received by the stigma and filters down through the pollen tube. The pollen fertilizes the eggs; fertilization is complete.
