the stalk of the pistil
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: -The top of the pistil is called the stigma, which is a sticky surface receptive to pollen. The bottom of the pistil contains the ovary and the narrowed region in between is called the style. The male contribution or pollen is produced in the anther, and seeds develop in the ovary.

Detailed explanation-3: -3) The style of the pistil is responsible for safely transporting the compatible pollen to the ovule. 4) Pistil protects the ovule present inside it.

Detailed explanation-4: -Style-is a long slender stalk that holds the stigma. Once the pollen reaches the stigma, the style starts to become hollow and forms a tube called the pollen tube which takes the pollen to the ovaries to enable fertilization. Stigma– This is found at the tip of the style. It forms the head of the pistil.
