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: -The male part of flowering plants is the stamen. This consists of an anther supported by a single stalk, the filament. The anther usually contains four pollen sacs which are responsible for producing pollen grains. Each pollen grain is a single cell containing two male gametes.
