Pollinator

4.
 

The picture above shows a pollinator. The pollinator happens to be a bee. A pollinator is the biotic vector that moves pollen from the male anthers of a flower to the female stigma of a flower to accomplish fertilization of the female gamete in the ovule of the flower by the male gamete from the pollen grain. Bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds are very well known pollinators.
