Detailed explanation-1: -The stamen is made up of two parts: the anther and filament. The anther produces pollen (male reproductive cells). The filament holds the anther up. During the process of fertilization, pollen lands on the stigma, a tube grows down the style and enters the ovary.
Detailed explanation-2: -The male parts of the flower are called the stamens and are made up of the anther at the top and the stalk or filament that supports the anther. The female elements are collectively called the pistil.
Detailed explanation-3: -When both the anthers and filaments are together, the condition is called as synandrous. The synandrous condition is found in the Cucurbitaceae family. In this condition stamen fused along both their filaments and anthers.
Detailed explanation-4: -stamen, the male reproductive part of a flower. In all but a few extant angiosperms, the stamen consists of a long slender stalk, the filament, with a two-lobed anther at the tip. The anther consists of four saclike structures (microsporangia) that produce pollen for pollination.
