Invertebrate Pollination Cards
Mini-card set
Cut, sort or read these cards. 1. HONEYBEE — A social insect that visits flowers for nectar and pollen. Pollen can stick to its fuzzy body and travel to another flower. 2. BUMBLEBEE — A large, fuzzy bee. Some flowers release pollen when a bumblebee vibrates its body against them; this is called buzz pollination. 3. BUTTERFLY — A daytime visitor that uncoils its long, straw-like proboscis to sip nectar. Pollen may cling to its body as it feeds. 4. MOTH — Many moths visit flowers after dark. Pale, sweet-smelling flowers can be easier to find at night. 5. POLLEN — Tiny grains made by flowers. For many flowering plants, pollen must reach the female part of a flower for seeds to develop. 6. NECTAR — A sugary liquid made by many flowers. It feeds visiting animals and can attract pollinators. 7. POLLINATION — The transfer of pollen to a flower’s female part. Animals, wind and other forces can all help move pollen. 8. PROBOSCIS — A long mouthpart that some butterflies and moths use to reach nectar inside flowers.
