Can pine pollen meet rose pollen and make a new flower?
No, pine pollen and rose pollen are from different plant species and cannot combine to create a new flower. In general, pollen from one plant species cannot fertilize the ovules of a different plant species.
Can any pollen fertilize any flower?
No, not all pollen can fertilize any flower. For successful fertilization to occur, the pollen must be compatible with the flower's stigma in terms of species and genetic makeup. Pollen from the same species or a closely related species is more likely to be successful in fertilizing a flower.
Why must pollen that fertilizes flowers be from the same species?
Pollen from the same species is required for successful fertilization because the pollen grains need to contain matching genetic information to that of the female reproductive structures in the flower. This ensures compatibility and proper development of the embryo. Pollen from different species would not have the necessary genetic instructions for successful fertilization to occur.
What are the 3 main ways pollen is transfered?
The three main ways pollen is transferred are by wind (anemophily), by insects (entomophily), and by birds or other animals (zoophily). Each method of pollen transfer is adapted to suit the specific characteristics of the plant species involved.
Why does pollen have spikes?
The reason why some pollen grains have spikes is because of the plant species. It also may be because of where the plant was adapted. Pollen grains have spikes also simply due to the location where the species is found. It is located in the coastal species where pollen grains have a different pollen shape to help with things such as salt resistant while a species found inland will be more heat resistant. It really just depends on the type of environment in which the plant has adapted. By Lyn Le

How many chromosomes in a pollen cell?
This is an impossible question to answer the way it is phrased. One needs to know what plant species is being discussed before the question can be answered. Each species will have a unique number of chromosomes and its pollen will have half as many as the parent species.
Does all pollen germinate indiscriminately on all stigmas?
No, pollen does not germinate indiscriminately on all stigmas. Each species of plant has specific mechanisms for pollen recognition, and there are compatibility factors and biochemical signaling involved in successful germination on a stigma. Pollen that is incompatible with a stigma may fail to germinate.

How long does oak pollen fall?
Oak pollen typically falls during the spring season, usually between March and June, depending on the geographic location and climate. The peak pollen release often occurs in April and May. The duration of pollen release can vary, but it generally lasts for about 2 to 4 weeks. Factors such as weather conditions and specific oak species can influence the exact timing and intensity of pollen dispersal.
Why are pollen grains different shapes for different species?
this is simply due to the location where the species is found. a coastal species may have a different pollen shape to help with things such as salt resistant while a species found inland will be more heat resistant. it just depends on the type of environment in which the plant has adapted. yr 11 bio student
Why do pollen grain only produce tubes in flowers of their species?
because they dony like other species
What color is pollen?
Pollen can vary in color depending on the plant species, but common colors include yellow, orange, and white.
How do you do a taxonomist experiment to see if two pine trees are of the same species?
A taxonomist could examine the pollen grains of both trees to look for specific differences. If the trees do not have pollen at this time a taxanomical experiment could involve taking DNA samples and comparing the results.
