Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What male part of a plant is responsible for producing pollen?
A
anther
B
stalk/filament
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -stamen, the male reproductive part of a flower. In all but a few extant angiosperms, the stamen consists of a long slender stalk, the filament, with a two-lobed anther at the tip. The anther consists of four saclike structures (microsporangia) that produce pollen for pollination.

Detailed explanation-2: -The male parts are called stamens and usually surround the pistil. The stamen is made up of two parts: the anther and filament. The anther produces pollen (male reproductive cells).

Detailed explanation-3: -Pollen is produced by the male part of the plant called the stamen of which the anther is a part. In the pollination process, the male pollen will land on the female part of the flower, the pistil of which the stigma is a part.

Detailed explanation-4: -The male contribution or pollen is produced in the anther, and seeds develop in the ovary.

Detailed explanation-5: -All plant reproduction requires that pollen be transmitted to the female organ, or pistil. (The exception is agamospermy, in which a plant produces viable seed without being fertilized.) Pollen is produced by the male organ, called the stamen.
