| Question | Answer |
| Why do the stigmas in wind-pollinated flowers have a large surface area? | To easily catch the pollen floating in the wind |
| Why do the stigmas in insect-pollinated flowers have smaller surface area? | They do not have to catch pollen floating in the wind, so there is no use for larger surface area. |
| Why are the stigmas in wind-pollinated flowers held outside the flower? | To easily catch pollen grains floating in the wind |
| Why are stigmas in insect-pollinated flowers held inside the flower? | So that pollen from the insects' bodies can rub off on the stigmas more easily when they enter the flower. |
