The male part of a flower is termed as the stamen.

It consists of anther and filament. The anther consists of pollen grains which are the male gamete. The anther is held up by the filament which is a thread-like structure.

The female reproductive part of a flower is termed as pistil. It consists of stigma, style, ovary, and ovule.
