Explain how geitonogamy is functionally similar to cross pollination and genetically similar to self pollination ?

Geitonogamy is functionally similar to cross pollination and genetically similar to autogamy. Justify.

When the pollers is transferred from anther to stigma of same flower, the pollination is called autogamy. (a) Cleistogamous flowers are invariably autogamous. Explain. (b) Geitonogamy is functionally cross pollination, but genetically similar to autogamy. Identify the statement. (Kerala Board 2017)

Assertion :- Geitonogamy is functionaly cross pollination and genetically self pollination. Reason :- It involves pollinating agent but pollen grains come from same plant

When the pollen is transferred from anther to the stigma of same flower, the pollination is called autogamy. Geitonogamy is functionally cross pollination, but genetically similar to autogamy. Justify the statement.

The type of pollination which is considered as functionally cross-pollination but genetically self- pollination is

The type of pollination which is considered as functionally cross-pollination but genetically self- pollination is

cross pollination and self pollination.

Assertion : Geitonogamy is functionally cross-pollination involving pollinating agent and genetically it is similar to autogamy since the pollen grains come from the another plant. Reason : Geitonogamy is the only type of pollination which during pollination brings genetically different types of pollen grains to the stigma.
