The correct answer is nectar.

To determine the correct answer, we need to understand what a pollination reward is - it is something that attracts pollinators and benefits the plant by facilitating the transfer of pollen.

Pollen is a crucial part of plant reproduction, but it is not typically given as a reward. Sweet odors and vibrant colors can attract pollinators, but they don't directly benefit the plant as a reward. On the other hand, nectar is a sweet liquid produced by plants that serves as a reward for pollinators. Pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds are attracted to nectar as a food source, and in the process, they inadvertently transfer pollen from one flower to another, facilitating pollination. Hence, nectar acts as both an attractant and a pollination reward for the plant.
