Question

Chiropterophily involves pollination by which organisms?

Options

• Wind

• Bats

• Insects

• Birds

Answer 1

Chiropterophily is the process of pollination mediated by bats, which are mammals that feed on nectar and pollen from flowers. Examples of chiropterophilous plants include Anthocephalus, Kigelia, and Adansonia. Bats are nocturnal pollinators that visit flowers at night, and these plants often have pale-colored, sweet-smelling flowers that are easily visible and locatable in darkness.
