Answer

  1. Both assertion and reason are true, but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

Explanation:

Cross pollination is the transfer of pollen grains from the anther of one flower to the stigma of another flower, i.e., allogamy. Cross pollination is further classified depending on whether the pollination has occurred between two flowers on the same plant (geitonogamy) or between two flowers on different plants (xenogamy). Cross pollination (allogamy) is performed with the help of an external agency. The latter may be abiotic (e.g., wind, water) or biotic (e.g., insects, birds, bats, snails).
