Which process is matched with a valid example?
| Process | Example |
| 1. seed dispersal | a stamen explodes in the wind |
| 2. fertilization | a nucleus from the pollen grain fuses with a nucleus in the ovule |
| 3. fertilization | a bee carries pollen from flower to flower |
| 4. pollination | seeds are blown from a flower onto another one by the wind |
