Flower Power Midterm Practice Test

The structure that consists of a filament and anther forms which reproductive organ?

Pistil Stamen Carpel Stigma

Correct Answer:

Stamen

Explanation:

The structure described by a filament with anther is the stamen, the male reproductive part of a flower. The filament is the slender stalk that holds up the anther, where pollen is produced and released for fertilization. In contrast, the pistil (female part) includes the stigma, style, and ovary, and the stigma is the sticky tip that captures pollen, not the filament-and-anther combination. So the filament-plus-anther description matches the stamen.
