Answer:

In some flowers, male and female reproductive parts develop and mature at different times which causes cross pollination, whereas in other flowers they develop at the same time so mostly self pollination occurs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dichogamous are those flowers in which the male and female reproductive parts develop and mature at different times so the stamen is not fertilized his own carpel which prevents self pollination and causes cross pollination whereas in some flowers both male and female reproductive parts develop at the same time so the stamen fertilized his own stigma and causes self pollination occurs.
