Parts of the flower

Our topic for today is sexual reproduction in flowering plants.

Let us learn about the male and female reproductive parts of flowering plants.

Stamen is the male reproductive part of the flower.

It consists of the anther and the filament.

The anther produces pollen grains.

Each mature pollen grain contains a tube cell consisting of a tube nucleus and two male gametes.

Carpel is the female reproductive part of the flower.

Top part of the carpel is called the stigma.

Stigma is supported by the style.

Base part of the carpal is the ovary

Ovary contains one or more ovules. Each ovule has a female gamete.
