Question

How does self-pollination lead to economical benefits in plants?

पर्याय

• Scent production increases to attract more pollinators

• No need for large petals, scent, or nectar to attract external agents

• Large petals are necessary to prevent self-pollination

• Plants require more nectar to ensure successful pollination

Answer 1

Self-pollination is economical because plants do not need to invest in large petals, scent production, or nectar secretion to attract external pollinators. Since the flower can pollinate itself, these costly features become unnecessary, conserving the plant's energy and resources.
