Vedclass · Answer

(D) Cross-pollination is the transfer of pollen grains from the anther of one flower to the stigma of another flower. Option $D$ describes self-pollination (autogamy),where pollen grains are transferred to the stigma of the same flower. Option $A$ describes geitonogamy,which is functionally cross-pollination but genetically self-pollination. Option $B$ describes xenogamy,which is true cross-pollination. Since the question asks for the incorrect explanation of cross-pollination,option $D$ is the correct answer because it defines self-pollination.
