A
pedicel
B
style
C
filament
D
anther
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Style – This is the name for the stalk of the pistil. When pollen reaches the stigma, it begins to grow a tube through the style called a pollen tube, which will eventually reach the ovary. The style, therefore, acts as a buffer against pollen contamination, since only compatible pollen is able to grow a pollen tube.

Detailed explanation-2: -Filament is the long stalk of stamen on top of which the anthers are held.

Detailed explanation-3: -Style: The style is the stalk-like tube that extends to the ovary of the pistil. Its purpose is to transport the male gamete to the ovary. Ovary: The ovary of the pistil contains the female gamete, the ovules.
