Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -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. The stamen consists of an anther atop a long filament.

Detailed explanation-3: -Pollen is produced by the stamen, a plant’s male reproductive organ. Male flowers release pollen, and females receive it to reproduce sexually.

Detailed explanation-4: -Stamen: The pollen producing part of a flower, usually with a slender filament supporting the anther. Anther: The part of the stamen where pollen is produced.
