Answer

Selfing

Explanation

The process of fertilization of the female gamete with a male gamete of the same plant is called (a) Selfing. Selfing, or self-pollination, occurs when the pollen from a flower’s stamen fertilizes the ovule of the same flower or another flower on the same plant. This can lead to the production of offspring that are genetically identical or very similar to the parent plant.
