Question
Wind pollinated flowers are:
small, brightly coloured, producing large number of pollen grains
small, producing large number of dry pollen grains
large, producing abundant nectar and pollen
small, producing nectar and dry pollen
Wind pollination, the most common form of abiotic pollination, requires specific adaptations: the flowers are typically small, grouped in inflorescences, and lack bright colours or nectar since they do not need to attract animal pollinators . To ensure successful pollination despite the random nature of wind, these plants produce a vast quantity of pollen grains which are light and non-sticky (dry) to facilitate easy dispersal .
This question aligns with the NEET BIOLOGY syllabus, specifically targeting concepts from Sexual Reproduction in Flowering Plants. Mastering this topic is crucial for scoring well in the upcoming medical entrance examinations. Solving conceptually related problems will help you understand the nuances of these concepts and improve your problem-solving speed.
