[A] : Anemophillous plants have to produce enormous quantities of pollen.
[R] : Because during the transit of pollen through a wind, a considerable amount of pollen is lost.

Pollen of anemophilous plants are

Pollen of anemophilous plants are

Why are pollen grains produced in enormous quantity in Maize ?

Why are pollen grains produced in enormous quantity in maize?

First pollen plant was produced by:

Anemophilous flowers produce abundant pollen grains . Give reason.

Assertion: To compensate the uncertainties and associated loss of pollen grains during pollination by abiotic agents, the flowers produce enormous amount of pollen when compared to the number of ovules available for pollination. Reason: Pollen grains coming in contact with the stigma is a chance factor in both wind and water pollination.
