Based on the data below, explain how the different methods of pollination (wind, insect, and self-pollination) affect the reproductive success (measured by seed production) in three plant species. What conclusions can you draw from this data?

Answer 1

The data suggests that insect-pollinated plants produced the most seeds, indicating higher reproductive success, followed by wind-pollinated species, while self-pollination resulted in the least seed production, likely due to reduced genetic diversity and less effective fertilization.
