Stamens are not usually pendulous in plants pollinated by __________ ?
Correct answer: B. Insects
- A. Wind
- B. Insects
- C. Water
- D. Rain
Explanation
Wind-pollinated flowers commonly have long, flexible filaments with pendulous anthers so pollen can be shaken into the air. Insect-pollinated stamens are usually positioned to brush against visiting insects, so students may incorrectly choose wind if they overlook the word 'not'.
