Wind pollinated flowers are
1. | small, brightly coloured, producing large number of pollen grains |
2. | small, producing large number of dry pollen grains |

What does the filiform apparatus do at the entrance into ovule?
1. It helps in the entry of pollen tube into a synergid
2. It prevents entry of more than one pollen tube into the embryo sac
3. It brings about opening of the pollen tube
4. It guides pollen tube from a synergid to egg
