it increases genetic diversity, which improves survivorship of the species
What else can I help you with?
What is reproduction without seeds?
Pollination. Pollinating with two plants is Cross Pollination. Pollinating with one plant is called Self Pollination.
Are olive trees self-pollinating, or do they require cross-pollination from other trees?
Olive trees are usually self-pollinating, but they can benefit from cross-pollination with other trees to increase fruit production.
Is a jasmine a cross-pollinating flower or a self pollinating flower?
Jasmine plants are generally self-pollinating, meaning they have both male and female reproductive organs within the same flower and can fertilize themselves without the need for cross-pollination from another plant.
What is pollinating by itself called?
Self-pollination.
Is alfalfa self pollinating?
Alfalfa is not self-pollinating; it primarily relies on cross-pollination. The flowers of alfalfa are structured in a way that encourages pollination by insects, particularly bees. While self-pollination can occur to some extent, the genetic diversity from cross-pollination is beneficial for the plant's adaptability and resilience. This characteristic is key to alfalfa's success as a forage crop.
What type of pollination in hibiscus?
Hibiscus plants can be both self-pollinating and cross-pollinating. They are primarily pollinated by bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, who transfer pollen between flowers as they feed on nectar. Hibiscus flowers can self-pollinate when the pollen from the anther is transferred to the stigma within the same flower.
What is self pollination in a flower?
it is the transfer of pollen grains from the anthers to the stigma of the same flower
Are lime trees self-pollinating, or do they require cross-pollination from other trees?
Lime trees are self-pollinating, meaning they can produce fruit without needing pollen from another tree.
How did Mendel prevent pea flowers from self pollinating and control their cross pollination?
He used a brush to wipe the pollen of of the flower and placed it on another plant causing forced self-pollination.
Could a flower self pollinating?
Yes, there are many self-pollinating vegetables, including most beans, lettuce, tomatoes, peppers, lentils, and more.
Are red lake currant plants self pollinating?
No, red lake currant plants are not self-pollinating. They require cross-pollination by insects such as bees to produce fruit successfully. Planting multiple currant plants nearby can help ensure proper pollination.
Reproduction without seeds is called what?
Pollination. Pollinating with two plants is Cross Pollination. Pollinating with one plant is called Self Pollination.
