EBK LIFE: THE SCIENCE OF BIOLOGY, Chapter 28, Problem 2Q

Introduction:

Flowers from the same species can have a variety of morphological differences on the basis of their color, structure, and texture. Pollination plays an important role in the life cycle of plant as it facilitates asexual reproduction of plants. The color of a flower depends on the type of pollination occurred in its parent plant. Pollination is carried with the help of different agents like insects, birds, wind, water, and animals.
