Why do flowers produce so many pollen?
Flowers produce so much pollen to increase the chances of one grain managing to fertilise.
Do sun flowers reproduce seeds?

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.
Flowers that are pollinated by the wind have smaller petals and sepals that are pollinated by insects or animals why are small petals and sepals an advantage to these flowers?
Answer 1: If a bloom has large petals and sepals, it's much harder to pollinate the flower. They would just get in the way. Answer 2: Petals and sepals are used to attract pollinators and give them a place to land. Wind pollinated plants don't need to attract pollinators or provide landing space for them. Thus, there is no use for large sepals and petals. .
How are unicorn plants pollinated?

Why don't wind pollinated flowers smell?
I'm not sure i think it is too much work to produce pollen and a perfume so they just do pollen to fertilise the other plants in the species. See there is a female bud and a male bud and without the pollen there would be no fruit.
In a worker bee's life time how much pollen does it produce?
Bees don't produce pollen, they collect it from flowers.
How is wind pollinating a flower similar to an insect pollinating a flower?
They both produce pollen, therefore they must have anthers and since they both produce seeds they must have stigmasThe end results of wind pollination and insect pollination are the same, the plants are pollinated.Wind pollinated plants, which include the grasses and some trees, have either no flowers or very insignificant flowers because they have no need to attract insects. The anthers produce very large amounts of very small pollen grains which are then blown by the wind in the hope of hitting a stigma of the same variety of plant. This is the type of pollen which is the major cause of hay fever.Insect pollinated plants will have flowers, usually with nectar, to attract the insects and reward them with food. A bee's body is covered with fine hairs which become charged with static electricity as the insect flies so when it lands on the flower the pollen grains are actually attracted to the bee's body. When the bee goes to the next flower, some of this pollen is transferred to the flower's stigma. Pollen grains of insect-pollinated plants are much larger than those of wind-pollinated plants.

What is the difference insect pollination and wind pollination?
Wind pollinated flowers sometimes look ugly because they don't need to attract bugs.
Is a buttercup flower a wind or insect pollinated plant?
It's bright and showy, and even has little nectar ducts under its petals, so insect-pollinated. Wind-pollinated plants generally don't have flowers, or the flowers are very small and inconspicuous, like those of grass. Wind-pollinated plants also make far more pollen (try tapping a pine tree or reed in spring) because the wind does not take it directly to its destination, much of it will be lost. With insects there's a fair chance the little there is will reach another flower of the same species.

What is the purpose of the specialized cells that produce strong odors from the corpse?
Corpse flowers are pollinated by flies. The smell that is generated is used to attract the flies for pollination; much as nectar in other plants is used to attract bees and butterflies
What shape flowers do bees like best?
its not the shape of the flower its how much pollen is in the flower
