Fertilization.
When male and female gametes unite to form the zygote, it is called fertilization. In flowering plants it is followed by pollination and pollen germination.
No, fertilization and pollination are not the same thing. Pollination is the process by which pollen from the male part of a flower (anther) is transferred to the female part (stigma), enabling fertilization to potentially occur. Fertilization follows pollination and involves the fusion of sperm cells from the pollen with the ovule, resulting in the formation of a seed. Thus, pollination is a prerequisite for fertilization but they are distinct processes.
No. The process of the joining of male and female reproductive cells is fertilization. The word is often misapplied to pollination which is a preliminary to fertilization in plants. The two are often confused.
pollination; if it from the same plant (self-fertilization; self-pollination); pollen from one plant to the stigma of another plant (cross-pollination; cross-fertilization)

Pollination is the transfer of pollen from the male reproductive organ of a plant to the female reproductive organ, enabling fertilization. Fertilization occurs when a sperm cell from the pollen combines with an egg cell in the ovule, leading to the formation of seeds.
Pollination
pollination; if it from the same plant (self-fertilization; self-pollination); pollen from one plant to the stigma of another plant (cross-pollination; cross-fertilization)
Pollination is the transfer of pollen to the ovule. Although it is a prerequisite to fertilization, several events must happen before fertilization occurs. Pollination is when pollen reaches the plant by wind or insect, whereas fertilization occurs when that pollen reaches the ovule and starts the beginnings of a new organism.
Pollination is a proces of dispersing pollen grains to stigma and the fertilization is the followed proces of pollination.
