objective 3.3b

  • Pollen grain is transferred from anther to stigma through the air by the wind.
  • Pollen grain weigh less as they're carried in the air by the wind and it probably has a particular wing feature in order to allow it to move through the air
  • Anthers stick out the front of a flower, exposed to the wind.
  • Stigmas have a really large surface area and a feather-like structure allowing the pollen grain to get caught in between the strands of the stigma.
  • Grass is a type of wind pollinated plant.
