Small, inconspicuous colorless flowers without nectar and fragrance...
Small, inconspicuous colorless flowers without nectar and fragrance are adaptations found in plants which are ____.
Options
- Aanemophilous and hydrophilous.
- Banemophilous and entomophilous.
- Cchiropterophilous and entomophilous.
- Dornithophilous and chiropterophilous.
Correct answer
A. anemophilous and hydrophilous.
Step-by-step solution
Small, inconspicuous, colorless flowers without nectar and fragrance are characteristic adaptations of plants pollinated by abiotic agents, such as wind (anemophily) and water (hydrophily).
Since these plants do not need to attract animal pollinators like insects (entomophily), birds (ornithophily), or bats (chiropterophily), they do not invest energy in producing bright colors, nectar, or scent.
Answer: anemophilous and hydrophilous.
