Question

The goal of every living organism, including plants, is to create offspring for the next generation. What is the technical word used for this process in the context of plants?

A.

Calcination

B.

Pollination

C.

Carbonation

D.

Hydrogenation

Correct option is B

Pollination is the process by which pollen is transferred from the male anther to the female stigma of a flower, leading to fertilization and the production of seeds.

Information Booster:

  • Pollination can be biotic (involving insects, birds, or animals) or abiotic (wind or water-based).
  • Self-pollination occurs within the same flower or plant, while cross-pollination occurs between different plants.
  • Bees, butterflies, and birds play a major role in pollination.
  • The fruit and seed formation depends on successful pollination.
  • Plants have evolved bright colors and scents to attract pollinators.

Additional Knowledge:

  • Calcination refers to the heating of a substance to high temperatures.
  • Carbonation is the dissolution of carbon dioxide in liquid (e.g., soda).
  • Hydrogenation is the addition of hydrogen to unsaturated compounds (e.g., making margarine from vegetable oil).
