Solution 1
- Pollination is the process of transfer of pollens from anther to stigma. It occurs with the help of certain pollinators such as air, water, birds, or some insects.
- Fertilization is the fusion of the male and female gametes. It occurs inside the ovule and leads to the formation of a zygote.
