NDA 2 2026 GAT Question Paper (13-Sep-2026)
The correct answer is

Light and small pollen grains

Insect-pollinated (entomophilous) flowers are typically large, brightly coloured, fragrant, and nectar-producing to attract insects, and their pollen grains are large, sticky, and often spiny so that they cling to visiting insects. Light and small pollen grains are instead a feature of wind-pollinated (anemophilous) plants.
