Accepted Answer

Hi everyone. Our next question says which one of the following is incorrectly matched with respect to flower and type of pollination. So we remember that we are looking for an incorrect answer. As we look at our possibilities choice A says colorful flower insect pollinated. Well, yes, when plants are pollinated by insects, they use colorful flowers to help the insects locate the flowers and to attract them. That is true and therefore not our correct answer. The next one says flower with strong odor. Bat pollinated while bats are nocturnal, we wouldn't be looking too bright colors to attract them, but a strong odor would. So that is also true and therefore not our answer choice. E says small colorless flower birds pollinated well, that is false. Flowers also use flowers are also brightly colored in plants that are pollinated by birds or might have sort of long tubular shapes to attract hummingbirds. So this is false and therefore see small colorless flowers. Birds pollinated is our correct answer here. Finally this look at our choice D. And see why that isn't correct. Green flower wind pollinated Well, this is true flowers that are pollinated by wind tend to have um small, almost no pedals that can be green um often green. And the priority there is the small petals so that as pollen gets blown by the wind, there's nothing in the way of allowing more of that pollen to be to get in contact with the stigma of the flower. So again, our correct choice is C. In this problem. See you next time
