3.3b - Wind Pollination

- Transfer of pollen grains from anther by air, then carried by wind to the Stigma.
- Grass - No colour in the petals and no scent to attract insects so no point to produce these, waste of energy when it is a wind pollinated plant.
- Anthers hang well clear of any basic flower structure, so exposed to the wind.
- Stigma, really large surface area, feather like structure to catch pollen grains.
- Probably moves more efficiently through the air.
