A. Pollination
B. Fertilization
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!

Pollination is the transfer of male gametes from the anther of the male plant to the stigma of the female plant. Pollination must occur as the first step in reproduction in flowering plants.

On the other hand, after the pollination has occurred, fertilization happens deep down in the female plant. The male sperm (gamete) unites with the female egg.
