The process of decomposing biodegradable wastes by earthworms is known as vermicompost. Ornithophily is a type of pollination of flowering plants by birds. Fruit bats, hummingbirds and ants may also act as agents in this process. Fruits which are dispersed by water modified to enable them to float. The mesocarp (middle layer) of coconut is fibrous and is easily carried away by water. Honey bees are helpful for cross-pollination in flowers. Bee converts the nectar into honey. Dragonfly destroys the egg and larva of harmful insects and mosquitoes and prevents the spreading of diseases like malaria, dengue, etc. Dragonflies might occasionally be accidental pollinators. 1.

The transfer of pollen grains from the anther to stigma of a flower is called pollination. Pollination is followed by fertilization. Two types of pollination take place in the flowering plants. They are self-pollination and cross pollination.
