  • B
    Hydrophily
  • C
    Entomophily
  • D
    Malacophily

Answer

  1. Anemophily

Explanation:

A small spike, especially one that is part of the characteristic inflorescence of grasses and sedges.

A grass spikelet consists of one or more florets (reduced flowers).

Each floret contains a pistil and stamens and is enclosed by two bracts, the lemma and the palea.

Anemophily or wind pollination is a form of pollination whereby pollen is distributed by wind.

Almost all gymnosperms are anemophilous, as are many plants in the order Poales, including grasses, sedges and rushes.
