Pollen isnt sperm. Pollen is the heavily regressed secondary generation. All plants follow alternate generations.
Pollen is the male semiclonal offspring of a dominant angiosperm form. The female lives within the heart of flowers, where they wait for pollen males to arrive and enseminate them.
And, yes, the definition of powder is a dry solid that sheers into fine particles. Pollen isnt a dry solid, its a bunch of organisms that are just very small. You could turn pollen into powder by killing, crushing, and drying it. But thats the same as sawdust.
Plants dont make powder
They do. Pollen is plant powder. You can also just grind up a tree, but I’ll give you that sawdust is not naturally occurring.
Pollen is not plant powder, its a living organism.

My guy, read your own link. Those are tri celled organisms, wikipedia even drew you a pretty colorful picture.
Just because the mediocre website used the word powdery doesnt make the living organisms a powder.
If I describe a leaf as feeling leathery, that does not make the leaf leather.
Do you think that part of the definition of living organism is that it can’t be a powder? Also, do you think sperm are living organisms?
