Bees can help flowers make seeds. Bees look for pollen and sweet juice. The bee's first job is to move pollen from the anther of one flower to the female stigma of another flower. In other words, when a bee gets pollen from a flower, the pollen sticks to bee.
The bee goes to another flower and the pollen falls onto the stigma. Most flowers use this pollen to make seeds. Other flowers use their own pollen to make seeds. Each tiny pollen grain grows into a long tube. They grow until they come to the ovary. Now a male gamete from the pollen tube joins the egg from the ovary and a seed is born.
