No, pollination occurs when pollen grains land on the sticky surface of the stigma.
Pollination
The transfer of pollen grains from the stamen to the pistil is called pollination.
Pollination is a process of transfer of pollen grains from the anther of a stamen to the stigma of a carpel . Agent that helps in pollination are wind, insects, birds and water.
It is called as pollination. Here the pollen grains are transmitted from one flower to other flower. Pollen grains may be transmitted in the same flower from the stamen to stigma.
During self pollination, pollen grains move from the stamen of a flower to its pistil. Cross pollination involves flowers from different plants.
It could be done by animal pollination , wind pollination or even self pollination.
In cross pollination there is wastage of pollen grains , but in self pollination there is no wastage of pollen grains.
Pollen grains are transferred to the stigma of a flower during pollination. This process is usually completed by bees.
The stigma is the part of the flower where the pollen grains stick during pollination
No, pollination occurs when pollen grains land on the sticky surface of the stigma.
Pollination
More pollen grains increase the chances of successful pollination. Successful pollination refers to pollen grains falling on the correct stigma for reproduction to occur.
Out of hundreds and thousands of pollen grains produced by each flower a few land on the stigma during pollination and others just wither away.
In cross pollination there is wastage of pollen grains , but in self pollination there is no wastage of pollen grains.
