Anthers and Stigma and Styles, Oh My!


The flower striped from all petals, stamen and ovary.
The male reproductive part of the plant called, the stamen. The filament is the stalk that comes up front he base of the flower and at the end of this stalk is a part called the anther.This part of the stamen releases pollen consisting of sperm cells.
The female reproductive part of the plant, known as the carpel. This includes the ovary, style, and stigma. The stigma has a sticky tip in which the pollen can attach to. The small specks are the pollen grains which have previously adhered.
This is the stigma. Anthers are around the stigma and the flower has both male and female parts in the same flower.
