QUESTION

A bee buzzes inside a flower to drink some nectar. While there it touches the stamen. Later the bee goes to another flower and comes into contact with the flower's pistil. Which process of reproduction is this helping with?

Pollination is a part of pre-fertilisation ( gamete transfer ).

Pollination by insects ( most commonly bees ) is known as Entamophily
