Wind moves pollen for some plants like grass and corn. Animal pollinators move pollen for many flowering plants.

Insects visit flowers for their nectar. Pollen sticks to their bodies and is then deposited on other flowers when the insect visits them.

Does the flower benefit when the bee collects pollen from it?

The benefit to the plant is that it is fertilized and can produce the seeds and fruit. Without pollination there would be no next generation of plant.


What is the effect of bees?

As the bees (and other flying insects) move from flower to flower, they drink the nectar and carry pollen on their bodies from flower to flower. It is this cross-pollination that fertilises each flower and the flower can then produce seed for next season flowers.

What is bee pollination?

As bees take nectar from a flower, pollen gets transferred from the stamen on to the bee's body. When the bee goes to the next flower some of this pollen is transferred to the stigma, fertilizing the flower. Once a bee starts collecting nectar from a particular type of flower it will keep going to the same type of flower as long as it can, keeping the pollen to the same type of flower.


What's the name for what bees go to the center of a flower?

Bees go to the flower to take nectar. In the process they will pick up pollen from one flower and transfer some of it to the next one they visit -- a process called pollination.


How does pollination from animals work?

When a bee or any bug gets what ever they get from a flower, pollen get on them, so the next flower they go to, gets that pollen. Or... If a dog or any other animal travels through a field of flowers, the flowers rub all over him/her and goes to the next flowers and keeps happening as he travels through the field.


What is the process in which pollen from one plant is used?

Pollen that is received from another plant is called pollination. Pollination occurs when insects and animals gather pollen on their bodies and will disperse it while moving around other plants.


What happens during pollination for flowers?

A bee is attracted to a flower from color, sweet nectar, etc... As the bee sucks up the nectar, pollen from the anther(s) gets stuck on the bee's body fur. When the bee moves on to the next flower, some pollen that was stuck to the bee from previous flowers falls off onto the stigma of the new flower.


How many insects are attracted to different plants?

Just one. As the animal crawls into the flower to collect nectar, pollen from the animal moves onto the next flower, some of the pollen brushes off onto the pistil when the insect goes to the next flower.


What is the role of the mouthpart of the butterfly pollination?

A butterfly uses it's mouth to eat nectar from the center of a flower. While eating, pollen gets on the butterfly's legs. When he travels to the next flower, the butterfly ends up inadvertently pollinating it.


What are the adaptations of orchids?

Many of the different species of orchids have unique adaptations of their flower structure and mechanisms of pollination. One of these pollination mechanisms is called pseudocopulatory pollination, which is where part of the flower actually looks like a female insect. What it does is release a scent into the air to smell like the pheromones of a female bee, fly, wasp or whatever species of insect the orchid needs to attract. When the male insect lands on it and "mates" with what really is the flower, the pollen attaches to the insect and stays with it until it reaches the next flower.
