What are the two structural differences between an insect-pollinated plant and a wind-pollinated plant?

Insect-pollinated plants typically have brightly colored flowers and strong fragrances to attract pollinators, whereas wind-pollinated plants often have small, inconspicuous flowers that lack scent. Additionally, insect-pollinated plants usually produce sticky pollen to adhere to pollinators, while wind-pollinated plants generate lightweight, abundant pollen that can be easily carried by the wind.


Which type of plant causes more hay fever insect pollinated or wind pollinated?

Wind-pollinated plants are primarily responsible for causing more hay fever than insect-pollinated plants. This is because wind-pollinated species, such as grasses, trees, and some weeds, release large quantities of lightweight pollen into the air, which can easily be inhaled by people. In contrast, insect-pollinated plants tend to produce heavier, stickier pollen that is less likely to become airborne and cause allergic reactions. Therefore, individuals with hay fever are more affected by pollen from wind-pollinated plants.

What plants are pollinated by insects?

Many plants are pollinated by insects, including bees, butterflies, and flies. Some common examples include sunflowers, roses, and fruit trees such as apple and peach. These plants rely on insects to transfer pollen from one flower to another in order to reproduce.

Most plants are pollinated by bees, butterflies, moths or other flying insects. Some are pollinated by wind or rain such as wheat and corn.

In North and South America hummingbirds pollinate tube shaped flowers.


How did Mendel make sure that plants cross pollinated?

He pollinated the plants himself and in the process he mixed the pollen from pea plants that had different colored to see what the end result would be (I got this all from a textbook I swear)
