(i) Stamens are the male reproductive parts of flowers. A stamen consists of an anther (which produces pollen) and a filament. The Female Reproductive Organs: The pistil is the collective term for the carpel(s). Each carpel includes an ovary (where the ovules are produced; ovules are the female reproductive cells, the eggs), a style (a tube on top of the ovary), and a stigma (which receives the pollen during fertilization).
(ii) 1 represents Sepal, 2 represents Petal, 3 represents Anther and 4 represents Ovary.
- Pedicel: It is the stalk of a flower.
- Calyx or Sepals: The outermost covering or whorl of a flower is called calyx and its units are called sepals.
- Corolla or Petals: Next to calyx is present corolla which is a colourful whorl and helps in attracting pollinating insects. The units of corolla are called petals.
- Stamen: It forms the male reproductive part of the flower. Each stamen has a long filament and a terminal anther. Anther contains the pollen grains.
- Carpel or Pistil: It forms the female reproductive part of the flower. Each carpel or pistil consists of three parts which are stigma, style and a basal swollen part called ovary.
