After a bee transfers pollen from the anther to the stigma, the next step in the life cycle of a flowering plant is C: fertilization. Once pollination occurs, the pollen grain germinates on the stigma, and the sperm cells travel down the pollen tube to fertilize the ovules in the ovary, leading to the development of seeds.
The bee is accidentally responsible for transferring pollen from the anther to the stigma. Following the bee's visit, what takes place NEXT in the life cycle of a flowering plant?
