How do organisms pollinate?
Let us consider the bee, which is the most famous, and the most useful pollinating organism. The bee comes to a flower in order to drink the nectar and eat the pollen, but the bee is also covered with hair (the bee hair consists of extrusions of chitin, it is not the same as mamallian hair) and lots of pollen sticks to it. When the bee then visits other flowers, it brings with it the pollen that it picked up at an earlier flower. If some of that pollen gets into the right place on the new flower (the right place being the pistil) then it will pollinate the flower.
What part of a flower does a bee rub with another flower's pollen?
The female part -- known as pistil -- is the part of a flower that a bee rubs with another flower's pollen. The original source of the pollen for the insect in question is a flower's male part, known as anther.
Where does a bee leave the pollen on a flower?
The Stigma
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.
What might happen if the same insect goes to another flower?
the insect that goes to that flower will go to another flower. but if a bee goes to a flower with another bee on it that bug will let the other bee in to get pollen
What happens when a bee lands a flower?
It collects the nectar and pollen (pollinating the flower).

How a flower is likely to be cross-pollinated by a bee?
when an insect visits a flower to feed on the nectar, some pollen grains from the anther stick to the hairy body of the insect. the pollen grains are brushed off onto the stigma when the insect visits another flower. examples of the flower:wild orchid balsam rose buttercup
What are the steps a bee takes to pollinate a flower?
a bee takes pollen into and out of the flower ;)
What does the bee get from its relationship with the flower?

What does a bee worker do at a flower?
gets pollen

The Stigma
When a bee lands on a flower some pollen gets stuck to its legs why is this useful to the plant?
The bee sucks the pollen from the flower, and flowers can make too much pollen so it can die. The bee also transfers pollen to other plants, which allows the plants to seed and spread.
How does bee help flower reproduction?
bee or the wind moves the pollen to the pistol
What is a pollen producer?
A bee or butterfly is an example. Or a flower...
What if anything does bee get from its relationship with the flower?
Pollen and nectar.
