Chapter 57.3, Problem 1CS
Summary Introduction
To describe: The common color of the flowers of bird-pollinated plants.
Introduction: Pollination is the act of transferring the pollen grain or male gametes to pollen tubes. The pollination is done with the help of pollinators. Birds play a vital role in pollination. They are attracted to flowers, where gametes are present. The gametes adhere with birds, and they carry these gametes to other plants.
