Summary Introduction

To examine: Whether the statement “A stamen consists of a filament and an anther that produces microspores, which give rise to pollen grains” is true or false.

Concept introduction: A flower consists of four parts, sepals, petals, stamens, and carpels. Petals and sepals together form the perianth. The carpels and stamens are the sexual organs that are present at the center of the flower. The stamens are the male reproductive part of a flower and are collectively called androecium.
