What is the palisade layer
200
The Anther and the filament make up what part of the flower?
What is the stamen
300
The major function of the leaves are to:
What is collect light for photosynthesis

What is the purpose of a 'pollinator' for plants
What is they aid in transferring pollen for reproductive purposes- the exchange of gametes occurs within flowers. When a honey bee lands on a flower, the pollen latches to its legs and as it fly's to the next plant, the pollen is exchanged (some left and some more gathered). This is the result of the exchange of gametes and reproduction with flowers and plants.
