Bees pollinate flowers when pollen gets stuck to their bodies, then is transferred to the stigma.

Answer 1

The true statement about pollination in flowers is:

Bees pollinate flowers when pollen gets stuck to their bodies, then is transferred to the stigma.

This correctly describes the role of bees in the pollination process, where they inadvertently transfer pollen from one flower to another as they collect pollen and nectar. The other statements contain inaccuracies regarding the mechanisms of pollination and reproduction in plants.
