Pollination is the process needed for seeds

to develop.

When the pollen lands on the sticky part of the pistil, it travelsto the egg deep inside the flower.

The pollen joins the egg and forms the seed...

Many living things will movethe pollen from flower to flower.

You and I are pollinators whenwe run through a field of flowers.

Pollen can be moved from flower toflower with the wind, in water, attached

to birds and insects.

On average, one bee will travelto over 1,000 flowers each day!!!

Many plants would not be able to make seedsunless bees pollinated their flowers.

Bees pollinate manycrops that give us food!
