Correct Answer: Anemophily
Solution : The correct option is Anemophily.
The term used for pollination by wind is "anemophily". In anemophily, pollen is carried from the male reproductive structures (anthers) of one plant to the female reproductive structures (stigma) of another plant by the wind. This method of pollination is common in many types of plants, including certain trees, grasses and some flowering plants that do not produce showy or fragrant flowers.
