A pollinator is an animal that moves pollen from the male anther of a flower to the female stigma of a flower [1] This helps to bring about fertilization of the ovules in the flower by the male gametes from the pollen grains

- The Why, What, When, Where, Who, How of Pollination
Pollination is an essential part of plant reproduction Pollen from a flower’s anthers (the male part of the plant) rubs or drops onto a pollinator The pollinator then take this pollen to another flower, where the pollen sticks to the stigma (the female part) The fertilized flower later yields fruit and seeds Do you know why some bees buzz?
