Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The egg or the ovule is present in the ovary. After fertilization, sometimes the ovary turns into the fruit to keep the seed. At the top of the ovary is a vertical structure called style that supports the stigma. The dispersed pollens stick to the stigma and travel down to the ovary through the style.

Detailed explanation-2: -The ovary often supports a long style, topped by a stigma. The mature ovary is a fruit, and the mature ovule is a seed. Stigma: The part of the pistil where pollen germinates. Ovary: The enlarged basal portion of the pistil where ovules are produced.

Detailed explanation-3: -The style of a flower is the stalk that supports the stigma and connects it to the ovary. One major function of the style is to assist with fertilization by being the location where pollen tubes travel to deliver sperm cells to the egg.

Detailed explanation-4: -The middle part of the pistil is called style. It is a tube which connects the stigma to ovary. It allows pollen grains to go down to the ovary.
