Each pollen grain has a very minute body that varies in shape and structure and is formed in the anther (male apparatus) of seed-bearing plants. Pollens are transported by various means such as wind, insects, water,and so forth to the pistil (female structure) of the flower, wherefertilization takes place.

b)
