Describe the role of bees and other insects in plant reproduction.
First, the bees and insects travel to the flowers looking for food. When they put their heads in the center of the flower to get the nectar, the thin feather-like hairs on their bodies pick up pollen. As they move to the next flower, they collect more pollen and some of the pollen they are carrying sticks to the stigma of the new flower and it is pollinated. This continues as the bees travel from flower to flower. The pollen that was on the stigma then mixes with the egg cells in the ovary and new seeds start being made.
