A) a long, tubular organ, like a tongue, used for sucking.
Sexual
a reproductive cell, such as an unfertilized egg
reproduction by the combination of male and female gametes
not sexual
an unborn, developing plant or animal
a circular growth of leaves or petals around a given point on a stem
reproduction by the combination of male and female gametes.
The correct answer is D) to add pollen to the female organ of a flower.
Pollination is the process by which pollen grains are transferred from the male part of a flower (called the stamen) to the female part (called the pistil). This transfer of pollen is essential for the fertilization of the flower, leading to the production of seeds and fruits.
To get this answer, we can eliminate options A, B, C, and E, as they do not accurately describe pollination. Option A refers to an unborn, developing plant or animal, which is unrelated to the process of pollination. Option B describes a long, tubular organ used for sucking, like a tongue, which is not relevant to the process of pollination. Option C refers to a reproductive cell, such as an unfertilized egg, which is also unrelated to pollination. Option E states "not sexual," which is incorrect, as pollination is a crucial part of plant reproduction and is indeed a sexual process.
Therefore, the correct option is D) to add pollen to the female organ of a flower.
