Pollen can move through various mechanisms such as wind, water, animals, or self-pollination. This movement is essential for the fertilization of plants and contributes to genetic diversity within plant populations. Each method of pollen movement has evolved to maximize successful pollination in different environments.
they cause the spread of pollen to other plants, because it gets stuck in their fur and so transfered. the pollen sticks to the stigma of other plants when the animal brushes past, and fertilises the ova in other flowers of the same species.

A plant breeder can transfer pollen using a tool like a small brush or an instrument called a pipette to carefully move pollen from one plant to another to create desired hybrid plants.
Bees, butterflies, and other flying insects are known to pollinate daisies. They visit the flowers in search of nectar or pollen, and as they move from flower to flower, they transfer pollen, aiding in fertilization.
Pollen is transferred from one flower to another through various methods such as wind, water, insects, birds, and other animals. This transfer allows for pollination to occur, enabling the fertilization of the plants and the production of seeds.

It sticks to them.
Wind moves pollen for some plants like grass and corn. Animal pollinators move pollen for many flowering plants.

the stigma
they take pollen from the stamen and move it to the pistil.
The structure that allows sperm cells to move through the style of a flower is the pollen tube. Pollen tubes carry the sperm cells from the pollen grains on the stigma, through the style, and into the ovary where fertilization can occur. This process is crucial for sexual reproduction in plants.

Bees collect pollen on their hairy bodies as they move from flower to flower. The pollen sticks to their bodies and is then carried back to the hive in special pollen baskets on their hind legs. This pollen is used as food for the bees and to help pollinate other flowers.

When an insect like bee's lands on a flower, pollen sticks to it's legs. So when an insect moves to another flower pollen gets on that flower and so on and so on as the insect moves from one plant to another.
