Why does insert pollinated flowers has bright petals?
Flowering plants also known as angiosperms have large bright petals as a attracting device for insects and birds. Insects do not see in the visiblelight specturum like we do, instead they see in the ultraviolet spectrum. If you were to look at a flower in the ultra violet spectrum it would apear as though it were a target, with the center or emphasis on the anther were the pollen is produced and spread from. In this way, flowers can spread pollen much more efficiantly and therfore reporduce more effectively.
Flowers that are pollinated by the wind have smaller petals and sepals that are pollinated by insects or animals why are small petals and sepals an advantage to these flowers?
Answer 1: If a bloom has large petals and sepals, it's much harder to pollinate the flower. They would just get in the way. Answer 2: Petals and sepals are used to attract pollinators and give them a place to land. Wind pollinated plants don't need to attract pollinators or provide landing space for them. Thus, there is no use for large sepals and petals. .

Nectar is produced by flowers to attract insects, bats or birds that will help to carry its pollen to other plants (and bring fresh pollen to it). If a plant is pollinated in the wind, then it doesn't need to spend the energy to make nectar.
What would happen to the plant population if an insect species was hugely reduced due to disease?
It depends what kinds of insects. And indeed plants. If they were destructive insects, the plants would do well due to less threat from the insects, however they would soon fight for light and space as they all grew, so some would die out anyway, restoring balance. If they were helpful insects, like bees, which pollinate plants, then it would be detrimental to the plants!
What would happen to plants if bees were extinct?
There are plenty of other insects that pollinate plants apart from bees so the plants would survive.
What would ladybugs eat?

What is the reason that the petals are so brightly colored?
Overall brightly colored flower petals assist in attracting insects, birds and small mammals to the flower for pollination. Coloured petals and nectar are normally used in conjunction - the petals as the attractant and the nectar as the "reward". Some petals which are not brightly coloured to humans, but reflect light in the Ultraviolet spectrum which some insects and birds can see.
Why do angelica plants attract wasps?
Well, considering that wasps drink nectar just as bees and other pollinators do, it would make sense that since Angelica is attractive to bees for it's nectar, it would be attractive to other insects that drink nectar as well.
