it is the process in which pollen, the male reproductive cells, comes off the anther, the male reproductive organ of a connifer ex: pine tree or flower ex: tulip. this is caused usually in connifers by wind blowing pollen to the female cones (later becoming pinecones) and in flowering plants by animals drinking nectar, and touching the anther. once the pollen of a flowering plant is on the animal, the animal goes to another flower to eat more nectar, and it touches the Pistil, the female reproductive organ, causing the pollen to stick to it. once the pollen is on, it creates a tube down to a chamber of unfertile egg cells, the female reprodictive cells. the tubes carry sperm to the eggs, which fertilizes them and they develop into seeds, the egg containing chamberbecomes a fruit, such as a Pepper, Tomato, Eggplant, Apple, any edible part of a plant containing seeds.
