by giving pollen and nectar
How do incts carry pollen?
The tibia of the bee's hind legs are flattened and have a concave section on their outer edges. Around these are hairs angled in towards the centre. These are called 'pollen baskets' or corbiculae. After a bee has visited a flower it will use its forelegs to brush pollen from the body down into the corbiculae where it becomes trapped in the hollow by the hairs.
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 sweet liquid that's inside the flower head that is drunk by flying insects?
it is called pollen.
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.
Why do plants use insects to carry pollen?

How do insects help with pollination?

When pollen is carried from a stamen to a pisil by wind or animals?
Yes both wind, insects like bees, and birds help to carry and transfer the pollen
How is pollen taken?
Insects visit the flowers to drink the liquid nectar the flower produces. In so doing, the insects brush against the pollen and carry some away on their bodies. When they visit the next flower, the pollen rubs off on to the stigma, when fertilization takes place.
What is the prupose of flower petals?
The petals are colored and may be scented so that they attract insects. When insects come to the plants, they carry sticky pollen on their legs and/or wings. They also pick up pollen from the plant that attracted them. This transfer of pollen from plant to plant is called pollination and is how the plants produce seeds to reproduce.

What ways do insects help other living organisims?

What incests carry flowers to another plants?
Insects such as bees, butterflies, and moths are key pollinators that transfer pollen from one flower to another, facilitating fertilization and the production of seeds. Additionally, other insects like beetles and certain flies also contribute to this process. By visiting flowers to collect nectar or pollen, these insects inadvertently carry pollen on their bodies, promoting cross-pollination among plants. This interaction is essential for the reproduction of many flowering plants and contributes to biodiversity.
Why do plants make nectar?
Nectar is the reward that a plant offers to attract flying insects to visit it. In visiting the plant the insects carry pollen on their bodies to other flowers and so pollinate them.
How does pollen use the air?
Some plants, like grasses and certain trees, do not use insects to carry pollen. Instead they produce large amounts of very small pollen grains which are released into the wind for them to be carried to other plants. Very often, it is this pollen which causes hay fever.
