Both pollination and fertilization are reproductive processes in plants. Pollination involves the transfer of pollen from the male reproductive organ to the female reproductive organ, while fertilization is the fusion of the male gamete (sperm) with the female gamete (egg) to form a zygote. Both processes are essential for plant reproduction and the production of seeds.
Fertilization.
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 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
Before.
Pollination is a proces of dispersing pollen grains to stigma and the fertilization is the followed proces of pollination.
No, fertilization in plants typically occurs after pollination. Pollination is the transfer of pollen from the male reproductive organ to the female reproductive organ of the same or a different plant, leading to the eventual fertilization of the ovule. Therefore, pollination is a necessary step for fertilization to occur in most plants.
