🇬🇧🇨🇳 pollination - 授粉 : English Lesson

Meaning of "pollination" ("授粉"), detailed definition, and a short video lesson below.

Pollination is how plants grow new plants! It happens when pollen (tiny yellow powder) from one flower gets moved to another flower—often by bees, butterflies, wind, or even bats. This helps the plant make fruit and seeds. Without pollination, we wouldn’t have apples, strawberries, or even chocolate!
