From the tiny buttercup to the giant redwood trees, plants come in all colors, shapes, and sizes.
Bees and butterflies often act as pollinators, helping with the transfer of pollen from one flower to another.
Filmmaker Louie Schwartzberg shows us the intricate world of pollen and pollinators with gorgeous high-speed images from his film “Wings of Life,” inspired by the vanishing of one of nature’s primary pollinators, the honeybee.
In this activity, students learn about plant reproduction and use real data to construct explanations about which flowers are the most attractive to different pollinators.
