Question

What do we call the process in which pollen is transferred by insects to other flowers?

Answer 1

The process in which pollen is transferred by insects to other flowers is called pollination. It is an essential process for the fertilization of flowers and the production of fruits and seeds.

Answer 2

The process in which pollen is transferred by insects to other flowers is called pollination. During pollination, insects such as bees, butterflies, and moths pick up pollen from the flowers of one plant and deposit it onto the stigma of another plant, allowing for fertilization and reproduction to occur. The transfer of pollen between plants is essential for the growth and survival of many species.

Answer 3

Pollination by nectar feeders

In doing so the insect collects the pollen, as it sticks to its body. When the insect visits another flower for more nectar, the pollen is transferred from its body to the stigma (pollen receiving female parts of the flower), causing pollination.
