I WONDER - Can The Weather Help With Pollination?

The video explains how wind and water assist in plant pollination. While many plants depend on animals for pollination, some utilize wind and water. Grasses, corn, and certain trees produce lightweight pollen that the wind can carry to other plants. Similarly, water-pollinated plants like sea grasses release pollen into the water, allowing it to be transported to other plants.

What are the two natural elements mentioned that assist in plant pollination?

• Wind and Fire

• Sunlight and Air

• Water and Soil

• Wind and Water

Which type of plants produce lightweight pollen that can be carried by the wind?

• Cacti and Succulents

• Grasses and Corn

• Ferns and Mosses

• Orchids and Lilies

What is a common characteristic of plants that rely on wind for pollination?

• They grow in dry areas

• They produce lightweight pollen

• They produce heavy pollen

• They have large, colorful flowers

How do sea grasses and some aquatic pond weeds pollinate?

• By self-pollination

• By releasing pollen into the water
