Vedclass · Answer

(B) The transfer of pollen grains from the anther to the stigma of a different plant is known as $Xenogamy$ (cross-pollination).In $Xenogamy$,the pollen grains come from a genetically different plant,which leads to the introduction of genetic variation in the offspring.$Geitonogamy$ involves the transfer of pollen grains from the anther to the stigma of another flower on the same plant,which is genetically similar to autogamy.$Chasmogamy$ and $Cleistogamy$ refer to the state of the flower (open or closed) during pollination,not the genetic source of the pollen.
