A bee visits several flowers in succession on a single willow herb plant. In doing so, the bee transfers pollen from the younger flowers, near the top of the inflorescence (group of flowers) to the older flowers near the base of the inflorescence. Is this an example of self-pollination or cross-pollination.
Dear student.
This is an example of self-pollination.
Self pollination occurs on the same plant. Transfer of pollen from the anther to the stigma of the same flower and transfer of pollen from anther of a flower to stigma of a different flower on the same plant is categorized as self pollination.
