(a) Distinguish between cross-pollination and self-pollination. Mention the site and product of fertilization in a flower.(b) Draw labelled diagram of a pistil showing the following parts:Stigma, Style, Ovary, Female germ cell
(a) Self-Pollination - This types of pollination occur when the pollen of one flower transfers to the stigma of the same flower, or another flower of the same plant.
