Biology class 9 pollination chapter

Biology class 9 pollination chapter 1. Explain the following terms . (a) Ornithophily. (b) Elephophily. (c) Artificial pollination.

1)Ornithophily?or bird pollination?is?the pollination of flowering plants?by?birds. This coevolutionary association?isderived from insect pollination (entomophily) and?is?particularly well developed in some parts of the world, especially in the tropics and on some island chains.2)In organic chemistry, an?electrophile?is a reagent attracted to electrons.Electrophiles?are positively charged or neutral species having vacant orbitals that are attracted to an electron rich centre. It participates in a chemical reaction by accepting an electron pair in order to bond to a nucleophile.3)Artificial pollination?occurs when humans intervene with the naturalpollination?process. They carry pollen, or plant sperm, from one flower to another, allowing the pollen to fertilize the ovaries and create seeds that will develop into fruits and new plants. Hope it might help u

Ornithophily -caused due to birds
Elephophily-caused due to elephants
Artificial pollination-caused deliberately by humans ,by process of hybridization

Ornithophily- is a type of cross pollination which is carried out by birds
Elephophily- is a type of cross pollination which is carried out by elephants
Artificial pollination- is a method by which man transfers the pollen grain from the anther to the stigma of a flower
Hope your queries are clear now.

Orinothophilly - Pollination by birds , for eg-Bombax


Elephophilly - Pollination by Elephants for ex - Rafflesia

Artificial Polination is the pollination by human being or through scientific methods. Tissue culture is an example of artificial Pollination
