The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Cross pollination does not occur in," we need to analyze the options provided and understand the characteristics of each type of flower mentioned. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Types of Flowers:** - **Allogamous Flowers:** These flowers are designed for cross-pollination. They have mechanisms that promote the transfer of pollen from one flower to another, often involving pollinators. - **Gametogamous Flowers:** This term typically refers to flowers that can undergo sexual reproduction through gametes, which may involve cross-pollination. - **Clistogamous Flowers:** These flowers do not open and are self-pollinating. The anthers and stigma are in close proximity, allowing pollen to fertilize the ovules without the need for external pollinators. - **Casmogamous Flowers:** This term is not standard in botanical terminology, but if it refers to flowers that are capable of cross-pollination, it would not be the correct answer. 2. **Identify the Flower That Does Not Cross-Pollinate:** - Among the options, **Clistogamous flowers** are the ones that do not engage in cross-pollination. They self-pollinate because they remain closed, preventing any external pollen from entering. 3. **Conclusion:** - Therefore, the correct answer to the question is **Clistogamous flowers**. ### Final Answer: Cross pollination does not occur in **Clistogamous flowers**. ---
