<h3>Small petals and sepals an advantage to these flowers:                                                                                                              </h3>
  • The flower petals and sepals are adaptations that attract pollinators.
  • Flowers that are 'pollinated by the wind' mostly have smaller sepals and petals as they do not have the need of attracting pollinators like insects, birds and bats.
  • In addition, it is possible that sepals and petals get in the track of pollen which might fly around in the wind. Also, it may "inhibit pollen" from "sticking" to the stigma.
  • Hence, wind pollinating plants comprise of small sepals and petals.
