Pollinators allow for sex between plants. A host (usually an insect) called a pollinator will go from flower to flower collecting or eating nectar. This is the plants pay to its pollinator because upon leaving the flower the pollinator will have sperm (aka pollen) attached to its body and it will transport it to another flower where the pollen will germinate. Not all plants have flowers, many plants rely of wind dispersal of pollen (think grasses) while others require water (think ferns).
Co-evolution is the process through which pollinators become specific to a particular type of flower. Over time, certain traits of the flower attract specific pollinators, leading to a mutually beneficial relationship where the pollinator receives a reward (such as nectar) and the flower is successfully pollinated. This specialization can enhance pollination efficiency and reproductive success for both the pollinator and the flower species.
Flower petals modify its color, shape, sensitivity, scent, and pattern to attract pollinators. The petal shapes also closely adapt to the pollinator's feeding and landing preferences.
An alstroemeria plant typically produces seeds in pods, with each pod containing multiple seeds. The exact number of seeds produced can vary depending on various factors such as the variety of alstroemeria, growing conditions, and pollination success.
Mutualistic interaction
Usually the pollinator gets nectar from the flower, also surplus pollen.

Yes, they do carry pollen from flower to flower.
That the pollinator is nocturnal, something like a moth or a bat
NARRATOR: The daffodil is called an entomologists flower because insects transfer the pollen from one flower to another. In their quest for food, insects brush against anthers and stigmas, effectively cross-pollinating the flowers.
A pollinator.
A bird
everytime a bee or butterfly gets on a flower it collects pollen so when they fly around the pollen falls off.
The sole purpose of the flower is to attract a pollinator. Once the flower has done it's job it is superfluous so is discarded to save energy.
What Does Pollination Mean?Pollination means , once the plant has grown and produced flower's, it may be pollinated.
