pollination help the seed
Pollen can be carried from flower to flower by several pollinating agents such as bees, wasps, flies, hummingbirds. Some plants self pollinate. Humans trying to create hybreds can pollinate with a Qtip.
Normally if the pollen grains in the androceium is higher than the stigma then they fall and stick to the stigma.However some agents like wind,movement by some agents or by insects help in pollination
The scent of flowers is felt due to diffusion hence insects which are agents of pollination are attracted by the
Self pollination-The transfer of pollen from a male reproductive structure (an anther or male cone) to a female reproductive structure (a stigma or female cone) of the same plant or of the same flower.Self-pollination tends to decrease the genetic diversity (increase the number of homozygous individuals) in a population, and is much less common than cross-fertilization. Many species of plants have evolved mechanisms to promote cross-pollination and avoid self-pollination, though certain plants, such as the pea, regularly self-pollinate.Cross pollination-The transfer of pollen from the male reproductive organ (an anther or a male cone) of one plant to the female reproductive organ (a stigma or a female cone) of another plant.Most plants reproduce by cross-pollination, which increases the genetic diversity of a population (increases the number of heterozygous individuals). Mechanisms that promote cross-pollination include having male flowers on one plant and female flowers on another, having pollen mature before the stigmas on the same plant are chemically receptive to being pollinated, and having anatomical arrangements (such as stigmas that are taller than anthers) that make self-pollination less likely. Insects and wind are the main agents of cross-pollination.
Agents Pollination are insects, birds, water and wind. They helps in Pollination transferring pollen grains from the anther of a stamen to the stigma of a carpel .

Hi, they are pollinated by bees, Bye
they are agents of pollination.
Di ko alam eh.....nice......nice......
