Detailed explanation-1: -The main function that filament performs is to carry nutrients to the anther for the development of the anther and pollen grains.

Detailed explanation-2: -The filament holds the anther up. During the process of fertilization, pollen lands on the stigma, a tube grows down the style and enters the ovary. Male reproductive cells travel down the tube and join with the ovule, fertilizing it.

Detailed explanation-3: -Filament. The thin stalk that supports the anther in the male portion of the flower.

Detailed explanation-4: -The thin wire in an electric bulb that produces light is called the filament. Due to high resistance of the filament and heating effect of electric current, filament glows and gives us light.

Detailed explanation-5: -The stamen of a flower-the part that produces pollen-consists of a slender stalk, called a filament and an anther. The filament supports the anther, which is where pollen develops.
