wind pollination is when the pollen is carried by the wind to potentially fertilize a flower. these plants have to make more pollen because only a small percentage actually lands on a flower of its species. doesn't have to look any certain way but has to be able to use the wind effectively
vector pollination is when pollen sticks to a bug and when that bug visits another plant, it fertilizes it. these plants have to make less because chances of fertilization is higher. these plants have to have somethinig attractive to these bugs (colors, nectar, fruit). and be sticky.
