Select the correct option with respect to labelled structure A, B, C, D, and E in the transverse section of microsporangia.

The flask-shaped organ A at the centre of a flower is surrounded by a number of little stalks B having swollen tops that lie just inside the ring of petals.
What does the swollen top of B contain? (Ovaries/Pollen grains)


The top part A of the flask-shaped reproductive organ X in the flower of a plant secretes a surgery substance into its lower part B which goes towards the bottom part C of the flask-shaped organ. When a tiny grain D coming from the top part E of another reproductive organ Y in the flower falls on part A, it grows a long tube F through the organ X in response to the sugary substance and reaches the bottom part C of flask shaped organ to carry out fertilisation.
Name (i) grain D, and (ii) part E of organ Y.





Identify the flower parts A to E in the given diagram.
