What part of the rice is being pollinated?
In rice plants, it is the flower that is being pollinated. The rice flower contains both male and female reproductive structures, allowing for self-pollination or cross-pollination. The pollen from the anthers (male parts) is transferred to the stigma (female part) of the same or another flower, leading to fertilization and the development of rice grains.
Does the stamen of wind-pollinated flowers hang outside or inside the flower?
In wind-pollinated flowers, the stamens typically hang outside the flower. This positioning helps facilitate the release of pollen into the air, increasing the chances of it being carried by the wind to other flowers. By being exposed, the stamens maximize their effectiveness in achieving pollination without relying on animal pollinators.
Are wind pollinated plants attractive?
That is a matter of taste. Grasses (the prime example) can be very attractive. It is the flower not the plants being attractive in case of insect pollinated and not so attractive in case of wind pollinated.
When do dandelions turn white?
After being pollinated, the flower will dry out and fall off. The next morning, the flower will be gone, and a white, fluffy seed head will appear. By seed head, I mean the fluffy thing with seeds. I hope this helps!
How can a flower blossom without even being planted?
Simple, it's a weed!
How are petals adapted to wind pollination?
There are certain adaptations for wind pollinated flowers..one, is being light and has plenty of hairy structures to trap pollen or being carried by air easily. two, the morphology and phyllotaxy of such flower is arranged in a manner at which wind can blow it easily and its reproductive activities perfectly suits the external environment.
Is the pride of barbados wind-pollinated or insect-pollinated?

What is the usefulness of a bee?
A bee is actually very useful. Bees pollinate flowers, and fruits were once flowers, and the flowers wouldn't turn into fruit without being pollinated.
How does a flower benefit from a bee pollinating a flower?
Seed production is the way that flower benefits from being pollinated by bees. The male parts, known as stamens, of flowering plants produce grains called pollen. Seed production requires the pollen to be deposited in the female parts known as pistils, and bees will effectuate that transfer by carrying off and dropping grains as they sip nectar.
Suppose you found 2 flowers growing next to each other in a field one had bright orange petals with strong sweet fragrance the other had no petals at all describe how each is normally pollinated?
The fragrant flower with the bright petals was probably pollinated by bees or other animals. The flowerless plant probably reproduces by spores being carried by the wind.
What would happen if the stigma is cut off?
If the stigma of a flower is cut off, it would likely prevent the flower from being pollinated naturally. The stigma is the receptive surface where pollen lands and germinates, leading to fertilization. Without a stigma, the flower would not be able to receive pollen and produce seeds, impacting its reproductive success. Additionally, cutting off the stigma could also disrupt the flower's ability to attract pollinators and reproduce effectively.
