Self-pollination is a form of pollination that can occur when a flower has both stamen and a carpel in which the cultivar or species is self fertile and the stamens and the sticky stigma of the carpel contact each other to accomplish pollination. The term is inaccurately used in many cases where an outside pollinator is actually required; such plants are merely self fertile, or self pollenizing.

Self-pollination of a plant is where a plant's pollen (from the anthers) lands on the same plant's stigma, causing it to pollinate itself. This is contrasted with cross-pollination which is where one plant's pollen lands on another plant's stigma. Plants often do specific things to avoid self-pollination if they can.

Cross Pollination is when the flower/plant is pollinated by other flowers/plants other then its self, unlike Self Pollination which ONE flower/plant can pollinate its self with out other flowers/plants, the more you learn in BIO the more you can see the hand of God in work!
