What features of a pollen grain makes it suited for being brushed off an insect?

The pollen grain is usually sticky and bright in color. These are the features that make the pollen grains suited for being brushed off by an insect.


How does pollination take place in flowering plants?

Pollination is the process of transferring male pollen grains to the stigma of the plant (either the same plant = self-pollination, or another related plant close by = cross-pollination). The pollen grains germinate and grow down the style of the plant where the fuse with the female ovules, this results in an embryo being formed, which then becomes the seed of the plant. Pollination is aided by various (so called) "agents" or "vectors", these are things that assist in moving the pollen grains from the anther to the stigma. Vectors/ agents include: wind, insects (bees, butterflies, ants, moths etc.) water in some cases, animals (cats, dogs, sheep, cows, humans etc.)


How many chromosomes in a pollen cell?

This is an impossible question to answer the way it is phrased. One needs to know what plant species is being discussed before the question can be answered. Each species will have a unique number of chromosomes and its pollen will have half as many as the parent species.


Sex cells divide using the process called?

The production of sex cells is called "gametogenesis." This makes sense since a gamete is a reproductive cell and "genesis" means creation or beginning. If the sex cells being produced are sperm the process is called "spermatogenesis" and if the sex cells being produced are eggs it is called "oogenisis."


How are spores and pollen suited for dispersal?

Spores and pollen are very light in weight and are always being scattered by the air easily on the land and here they come in contact with the other dipersal agents and carried away from one place to another place.
