Best Answer

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.

Insects, including bees, pollinate flowers by landing on a flower to collect or feed on nectar. While doing this, pollen transfers to the insects body and when the insect flies off and lands on another flower, the pollen will be brushed off onto the new flower, thereby completing a pollination cycle.

Where is the flower's pollination stored before pollination?

Before pollination, the pollen grains are stored in the anthers (male part) of the plant. During pollination, an insect (such as a bee) flies to the flower for nectar and some pollen from the anthers rubs off on it. When the bee travels to another flower, the pollen sticks to the stigma (female part). After pollination, fertilization can begin. Hope this helps.
