Solution:

The majority of flowering plants use a range of animals as pollinating agents. Bees, butterflies, flies, beetles, wasps, ants, moths, birds (sunbirds and hummingbirds), and bats are the common pollinating agents. Among the animals, insects, particularly bees are the dominant biotic pollinating agents that pollinate about 80% of the total insect-pollinated flowers. Pollination by insects is known as Entomophily.
