Identify the set of correct statements: A. The flowers of $Vallisneria$ are colourful and produce nectar B. The flowers of waterlily are not pollinated by water. C. In most of water-pollinated species, the pollen grains are protected from wetting. D. Pollen grains of some hydrophytes are long and ribbon like. E. In some hydrophytes, the pollen grains are carried passively inside water. Choose the correct answer from the options given below:A. Flowers of $Vallisneria$ are not colourful and do not produce nectar – incorrect. B. Flowers of water lily emerge above the water level and are pollinated by insects or wind, not by water – correct. C. In most water-pollinated species, pollen grains are protected from wetting by a mucilaginous covering – correct. D. Pollen grains of some hydrophytes (e.g. seagrasses) are long and ribbon-like – correct. E. In some hydrophytes such as $Vallisneria$, pollen grains are carried passively inside water – correct. So B, C, D and E only are correct.
