उत्तर
In flowering plants, male gametes are produced in the pollen grains inside the anther. Pollination brings the pollen grains having male gametes from the anther to the stigma. Upon successful arrival of pollen grains on the stigma, a pollen tube is formed where they take male gamete to the female gamete or egg present in the ovule for fertilisation. So, if pollination does not occur, fertilisation will also not take place.
