to attract bugs to land on it. After landing on the flower pollen will stick to the bugs feet, so then when the bug lands on another flower, it will pollinate it. That is one way of how flowers reproduce sexually.

Why are some flowers and fruits brightly coloured?

Flowers are brightly colored to attract other insects and animals. This is a mode of pollination through agents like insects and animals. When the insects come in contact of the flower, the pollen grains stick to their feet and are transferred to another plant.


Why is cross pollination has a bright colour?

A flower Is the means by which a plant reproduces. Some flowers contain both male and female organs. Some plants have separate female plants and male plants. The reason the flowers are often brightly colored or fragrant is that they need to attract insects, birds and bats to pollinate them. Pollen sticks on the pollinator's body and then is moved to the female organs of the plant. Different flowers have different colors to stand out from other plants. Some pollinators see different colors better than others. Plants that open at night have light colors to attract night insects and bats.


Why are wind pollinated flowers not usually brightly colored?

Wind-pollinated plants do not need colorful flowers as they are not pollinated by animals, insects or birds. Since wind-pollinated plants do not need colorful flowers, they might as well put their energy into making their pollen lighter, or more of it.

Why do deciduous plants produce brightly colored nectar filled flowers?

There's only one purpose for a brightly colored flower, especially one with sweet nectar inside of it. Certainly the wind doesn't care what a plant's flowers look like, so that's not it. Could it be to attract an animal that may come and eat the nectar? The animal would then get pollen all over its face and carry that pollen to other flowers, thus helping the plant to reproduce.
