What else can I help you with?
Why do wind-pollinated plant species generally produce more pollen than animal pollinated species?
They will most likely have less because they are not the kind of flower that really sticks out because of certain coloring, so that's also why they can depend on wing more than animals to pollinate.
What else can you get from a honeybee other than honey?
You can get the flowers, shrubs and fruit trees in your garden pollinated.
Is a hibiscus an insect pollinated flower or a wind pollinated flower?
Hibiscus flowers are primarily insect-pollinated, relying on bees, butterflies, and other insects to transfer pollen between flowers for successful pollination. This is due to the structure of the flower, which is designed to attract and accommodate specific pollinators.
Does cross-pollinated flowers usually have their stamens higher than their pistils?
Yes, in most cases, in cross-pollinated flowers, the stamens are positioned above the pistil to prevent self-pollination. This arrangement encourages pollen from another flower to come in contact with the pistil for fertilization.
Are stinging nettles wind pollinated?
Stinging nettles (Urtica dioica) are primarily insect-pollinated rather than wind-pollinated. They produce small, inconspicuous flowers that attract various pollinators, including bees. While some plants rely on wind for pollination, stinging nettles benefit from the activity of insects to facilitate the transfer of pollen between flowers.
Can flowers grow with soda better than water?
Flowers will not grow with soda better than they will with water. The sugar and carbonation in soda can kill flowers.
Why do you think pollinated plants typically do not have colorful flowers?
Pollinated plants may not need to attract pollinators with colorful flowers because they have already been successfully pollinated. Once they have achieved fertilization, their energy can be directed towards seed production rather than attracting more pollinators. Additionally, producing colorful flowers requires energy, so once pollination is complete, the plant may benefit from conserving energy in other ways.
2 types of wind pollinated flowers?
Common examples of anemophilous (wind-pollinated) plants are ragweed, grass, and conifers.(Generally, any pollen that is considered an allergen, comes from an anemophilous plant)
Are all flowers colorful?
Some plants do not have flowers. Nearly all the plants you see around you are flowering plants: trees, bushes, vines, grasses and the "weeds". The flowers may not be big and showy, but they are there if you look for them. When flowering plants spread all over the world, about a hundred million years ago, they pushed aside the ferns and mosses and cone-bearing trees that had covered the planet for many millions of years. Of course, those plants are still here but they no longer have the planet to themselves as they did before the development of the super-successful flowering plants.
Which 2 flowers are not colorful and showy?
There are more than 2 flowers which are not colorful and showy. All anemophilous flowers (Flowers which are pollinated by wind) are such flowers as they have no need to attract insects or birds for pollination. Examples for such flowers are : Grass species, Coniferous trees (Pine trees), Ragweed flowers, Hickory family, the Hoary Plantain and Sweet Chestnuts.
Why do bees like blue flowers most of all?
Because insects can see purple, blue etc. better than red, orange etc. That's why tropical red flowers are almost always pollinated by birds, and red berries are eaten by birds; birds can see red better, insects can see blue better. Insects are also quite good with ultraviolet light, which is why many flowers have markings that are invisible to us, but visible to them - they can see colours beyond our vision.
What is an insect-pollinated flower?
Any flower that is pollinated by an animal (not insect); pollinators include birds, bats, small mammals etc.
