Could you describe at least two ways in which pollen is transfered from one way to another?


Rate This Answer

Zoophily is the spread of pollen by an animal. Animals responsible for pollinating plants are bees, butterflies and other flying insects, as well as birds and some mammals, including bats and mice. Another method of spreading pollen is by the wind. This is called anemophily. Plants that spread their pollen by the wind usually produce smaller flowers than plants that rely on animals for pollination. Also, unlike animal-borne pollen, pollen carried by the wind is not sticky. ChaCha!
