The animals then carry pollen , which is sperm packaged in a covering of cells from plant to plant. The animals get a reward of food, like sweet nectar or some of the pollen itself. First we will talk about orchid pollination. Flowers of many species of orchids, particularly tropical species, produce different chemical attractants which are specific for each species of orchid. And each orchid species depends up a different species of pollinating bee to be attracted and carry pollen between plants.
Figs are really the product of a structure called a synconium , which looks like a baby fig.
The flowers are on the inside of the synconium. Female fig wasps, about the size of the head of a pin, enter the synconium through a small hole at one end. They lay eggs in the fig and carry fig pollen from other flowers. So, the pollen contributes a sperm to the fig eggs in the female flower parts and the development of seeds, baby fig plants, begins. Also, the wasp eggs hatch making worm like larva.
