What is the female part of a flower known as?(a) Pistil (b) Corolla(c) Stamen(d)Pollen Tube

The female part of a flower is known as the pistil.

Here is the breakdown of the options:

(a) Pistil: This is the correct answer. The pistil is the female reproductive part of a flower. It consists of three main parts: the stigma (where pollen is received), the style (the tube that connects the stigma to the ovary), and the ovary (which contains the ovules).

(b) Corolla: This is the collective term for the petals of a flower, which are typically involved in attracting pollinators. The corolla is part of the flower's reproductive system but is not the female part.

(c) Stamen: The stamen is the male reproductive part of the flower, which consists of the anther (where pollen is produced) and the filament (the stalk that supports the anther).

(d) Pollen Tube: The pollen tube is formed when pollen from the male part (stamen) travels to the ovary to fertilize the ovules. It is not the female part.

Thus, the correct answer is (a) Pistil.
