An interesting modification of flower shape for
insect pollination occurs in some orchids in which a
male insect mistakes the pattern on the orchid flower
for the female species and tries to copulate with it,
thereby pollinating the flower. This phenomenon is
called
(a) pseudopollination (b) pseudoparthenocarpy
(c) mimicry (d) pseudocopulation.
