Quick Plant Systems Review

What role do animal pollinators like birds, butterflies, and bees play in cross-fertilization?

• They help in seed dispersal.

• B. They transfer pollen between flowers.

• They provide shade to flowers.

• They help in watering flowers.

How can flowering plants reproduce?

• Through self-pollination only

• Through cross-fertilization only

• Through both self-pollination and cross-fertilization

• Through wind dispersal

What is the main difference between self-pollination and cross-fertilization?

• Self-pollination results in genetically identical plants, while cross-fertilization involves pollen transfer between different plants.

• Self-pollination involves pollen transfer between different plants, while cross-fertilization results in genetically identical plants.

• Self-pollination and cross-fertilization both result in genetically identical plants.

• Self-pollination and cross-fertilization do not involve pollen transfer.
