How does Plumeria promote pollination in its flowers?
Plumeria promotes pollination in its flowers through various adaptations. The flowers are brightly colored and emit a strong, sweet fragrance to attract pollinators from a distance. The flowers also produce nectar as a reward for pollinators that visit them. Additionally, the structure of the flowers ensures that the reproductive organs (stamen and pistil) are readily accessible to pollinators, making it easy for them to collect and transfer pollen. The combination of visual, olfactory, and structural cues ensures that Plumeria flowers effectively entice and facilitate the pollination process.
