Is pollen a carcinogen?
Pollen is not considered a carcinogen. It is a natural substance produced by plants for reproductive purposes, and while it can sometimes trigger allergies in sensitive individuals, it is not known to cause cancer.
What protects and stores pollen?
Pollen is protected and stored by the anthers, which are part of the stamen in flowering plants. The anthers contain pollen sacs, or microsporangia, where pollen grains develop and are ultimately released when mature. Additionally, pollen grains themselves have tough outer walls made of sporopollenin, which provides protection against environmental factors. This combination ensures that pollen remains viable for fertilization when it reaches a compatible stigma.
Where does pollen grains form?
Pollen grains are formed within the anthers of flowering plants, which are the male reproductive structures where pollen grains develop and mature. The process of pollen grain formation is called microsporogenesis.
What do worker honey bees eat?
Worker honey bees eat a mix of nectar, pollen, and water from flowers. They collect these resources to bring back to the hive for themselves and the rest of the colony.
What is advantages of a plant producing so much pollen?
Pollen protects the gametes from environmental dangers and allows the gametes to travel without water. This in turn allows the gametes to travel longer distances and to more diverse environments
What role do insects play in pollination?
insects play a major role in pollination by transferring pollen grains from one flower to other flower.eg: honey bee
Why do bees collect pollen and nectar?
To feed themselves and their young.
What are benefits of honeybees to crop farmers?
honeybees are wonderful benefactors to crop farmers because they pollinate their crops. they also can give farmers a little bit of extra money because when they go back to their hives with some of the pollen, they will make the farmers honey.

What is the movement of pollen from the anther to the stigma of the flower is what?
It is known as pollination (sometimes as cross-pollination).
Do butterflies clean themselves?
Butterflies are quite adept at cleaning themselves. It is a necessary practice because they pollinate plants effectively. Cleaning themselves gets rid of all the pollen that has been collected.
Are there solids in the air you breath?
Yes. You breathe in dust, pollen and sometimes you get Allergies from them but you can definitely smell them.
Are there solid particles in the air you breathe?
Yes. You breathe in dust, pollen and sometimes you get allergies from them but you can definitely smell them.
Are bees allergic to pollen?
Yes. Some pollen will be accidentally trapped in the fine hairs on her body and will pollinate the next flower visited. Also, the bee will gather pollen and transfer it into 'pollen baskets' on her hind legs in order to take it back to the hive. You can sometimes see this when you see a bee with what appear to be yellow lumps on her legs. Pollen is rich in protein and is mixed with a little honey to make a substance called bee bread. This is fed to the larvae.

What is a bee's prey?
bee's feed on nectar and pollen and they don't kill or hunt for prey because they are not predators they are prey themselves
