parts include the anther and filament, which together are called the stamen. The stamen
produces the pollen. The female parts are the stigma, the style, and the ovary at the base of the
flower, which together are called the carpel.
During pollination, the pollen grains from the stamen (male parts) get stuck on the
stigma (female part), which is sticky for this very reason. A pollen tube grows down the side of
the style and transports the male sperm nuclei to the ovul...
