Pollen is usually species specific otherwise it would not be possible to classify plants. There are very few instances where pollen will fertilize different species from itself.

Can any pollen fertilize any flower?
No. Plants need the pollen from another plant of the same species to reproduce.
Why does pollen have spikes?
The reason why some pollen grains have spikes is because of the plant species. It also may be because of where the plant was adapted. Pollen grains have spikes also simply due to the location where the species is found. It is located in the coastal species where pollen grains have a different pollen shape to help with things such as salt resistant while a species found inland will be more heat resistant. It really just depends on the type of environment in which the plant has adapted. By Lyn Le
What is the yellow powder sometimes left it rains?
Probably tree pollen. Many species of trees produce copious quantities of airborne pollen.
Why do pollen grains only produce tube in flower of their own species?
because
Which grouping identifies a specific organism?
the grouping for a specific organism is the species
How many chromosomes in a pollen cell?
This is an impossible question to answer the way it is phrased. One needs to know what plant species is being discussed before the question can be answered. Each species will have a unique number of chromosomes and its pollen will have half as many as the parent species.
Can any pollen fertilize any flower?
No. Plants need the pollen from another plant of the same species to reproduce.
How do you do a taxonomist experiment to see if two pine trees are of the same species?
A taxonomist could examine the pollen grains of both trees to look for specific differences. If the trees do not have pollen at this time a taxanomical experiment could involve taking DNA samples and comparing the results.

Why do pollen grains have spikes?
· Simply due to the location where the species is found. · A coastal species may have a different pollen shape to help with things such as salt resistant while a species found inland will be more heat resistant. · It just depends on the type of environment in which the plant has adapted. It also has something to do with bees. Bees have to carry pollen therefore telling how honey is collected

because they dony like other species
Is there any pollen in the dwarf lake iris?
Dwarf lake iris or Iris lacustris does have pollen. It is a threatened species because of loss of habitat.
What is the yellow powder sometimes left it rains?
Probably tree pollen. Many species of trees produce copious quantities of airborne pollen.
What part holds the pollen?
The stamen, or to be more specific, the microsporangia.
What is pollen cone?
It's a lot of pollen, shaped as a cone... JKThe male cone (microstrobilus or pollen cone) is structurally similar across all conifers, differing only in small ways (mostly in scale arrangement) from species to species. Extending out from a central axis are microsporophylls (modified leaves). Under each microsporophyll is one or several microsporangia (pollen sacs).
People who are allergic to pollen are said to suffer from?
If you have a Pollen Allergy then you suffer from Allergies Type 1, also called Contact Allergies. There is no general allergy to pollen. People that are allergic to pollen are allergic to the pollen from one or more specific plants. Source:www.allergies-team.com
