Which of the following helps with plant reproduction?
A
Pollen
B
Stem
C
Roots
D
Leaves
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The anther is the part of the stamen that contains pollen. Pollen contains the male gametes. Pollen must be moved to a part of the pistil called the stigma for reproduction to take place.

Detailed explanation-2: -Pollination is an essential part of plant reproduction. Pollen from a flower’s anthers (the male part of the plant) rubs or drops onto a pollinator. The pollinator then take this pollen to another flower, where the pollen sticks to the stigma (the female part). The fertilized flower later yields fruit and seeds.

Detailed explanation-3: -Pollination: The reproduction in plants begins from the process of pollination. In this process, the pollen grains are transferred between the anther and stigma of the same flower or another plant.

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.

Detailed explanation-5: -Sexual reproduction in flowering plants involves the production of separate male and female gametophytes that produce gametes. The anther produces pollen grains which contain male gametophytes. The pollen grains attach to the stigma on top of a carpel, in which the female gametophytes (inside ovules) are located.
