By various means, depending on the species. In some, bees and other insects go for the honey and in doing so get pollen on them which they then transfer to another flower when they visit that. In others, wind blows the pollen from the anthers (the male part) to the stigma (the female part). In others, the anthers bend over and touch the stigma. All sorts of methods.

The male organs of flowers are called stamens; the female parts are called pistils. Pollination is the transference of pollen from the plant's stamen to its pistil. In conifers, pollination occurs when pollen is transferred from the male pollen cone to the female seed cone. Pollen can be transferred by the wind or by birds or insects who come into contact with the flowers. The pollen clings to them and is transferred as they move from flower to flower. After a plant is pollinated, it becomes fertile and begins seed production.

bugs and animals carry it on their bodies while trying to eat the fruit from the plant or take nectar from the flower or eat the leaves.

Does a male or female cone produce seeds?

The female cone.


Are pine cones asexual or sexual reproduction?

They can produce either way. The female conifers reproduce seeds which are held in the cone. The male’s cones produce pollen which is transferred by the wind. When the female cells are ready to unite with the male cells in the pollen, the female cone becomes sticky so it can stick to the pollen. Many conifer seeds have wings so to carry them away from the adult tree in the wind. Hope this helped :)

How are pollen cones and seed cones different?

Conifer trees have two different kinds of cones. The pollen cones house the male reproductive cells. They produce pollen which is later transferred to the female cone to fertilize the seeds. The seed cone houses the female reproductive cells, which when pollinated become seeds.

Where are angiosperm seeds often found?

Angiosperm seeds are found inside the female cones. The cone is called a strobilus. The male cones distribute 1-2 million pollen grains. The female cones have a sticky secretion that catches the pollen and brings it into the female cone.
