Want this question answered?
There would be no more plants if they were not fertilized. Fertilization is necessary for reproduction.
Gymnosperms
Pollen is the male reproductive structure of seed plants. It contains the sperm cells necessary for fertilization. When pollen is transferred from the male reproductive structure to the female reproductive structure (such as by wind or pollinators), it can reach the ovule without the need for water, allowing for fertilization and seed formation to occur.
Yes Edited answer: No, only crptogames need water for fertilization. In higher plants like angiosperms, the gametes are non-motile and male gametes reach near the egg for fertilization with the help of pollen tube.

All plants need water.

i dont think this question is appropriate for the answer
The agents of pollination include, animals, wind, water, and expulsion. They are necessary in the growth and reproduction of flowering and cone plants. Without these methods of travel pollen(male) could not reach the egg(femaile) of the flower and fertilization and reproduction could not occur in these plants.
