Pollination is essential in plant reproduction as it is the process by which pollen grains are transferred from the male part of the plant (anther) to the female part (stigma) of the same or another flower, allowing for fertilization to occur. This process leads to the formation of seeds and fruits, ensuring the continuation of plant species. Pollination also contributes to genetic diversity within plant populations, which is important for the adaptation and evolution of plants in changing environmental conditions.
