Zapylany

Zapylany is a term that can refer to a few different things, primarily related to pollen or the act of pollination. In its most common usage, it describes the state of being dusted or covered with pollen. This can be seen on insects like bees, where their bodies become laden with pollen as they move from flower to flower, playing a crucial role in plant reproduction.

The term can also describe a flower that has been pollinated. Once pollen has successfully transferred from the anther to the stigma, the flower is considered "zapylany" in the sense that the process has occurred. This leads to fertilization and the eventual development of fruits and seeds.

In some contexts, "zapylany" might be used more broadly to describe the general activity of pollination within an ecosystem. It highlights the interconnectedness of plants and their pollinators, emphasizing the biological necessity of this exchange. The effectiveness of this process is vital for the biodiversity and agricultural output of many regions.
