Correct answer: (c) Wind
Explanation:
Pollination by wind is called anemophily.
Anemophilous flowers are small, in conspicuous non-scented without bright colours, nectar and fragrance. Wind pollination also requires that the pollen grains are light and non-sticky which is in large numbers and its stigmas are long and feathery.
