Solution

In conifers, pollen grains reach the scales of female cones through wind. This process is known as wind pollination or anemophily. The pollen grains are released from the male cones into the air and carried by the wind. If they land on a female cone, they can fertilize the ovules. So, the correct answer is "wind".
