The correct Answer is:
To answer the question, "If pollen grain is transferred from anther to stigma of the same flower, it is called:", we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Pollination**: Pollination is the process where pollen grains are transferred from the male part of a flower (anther) to the female part (stigma). 2. **Identifying Types of Pollination**: There are different types of pollination based on where the pollen is transferred: - **Autogamy**: Transfer of pollen from the anther to the stigma of the same flower. - **Geitonogamy**: Transfer of pollen from the anther of one flower to the stigma of another flower on the same plant. - **Xenogamy**: Transfer of pollen from the anther of one plant to the stigma of a different plant. 3. **Applying Definitions**: Since the question specifically mentions the transfer of pollen from the anther to the stigma of the same flower, we can conclude that this is an example of autogamy. 4. **Final Answer**: Therefore, the correct answer is **Autogamy**.
