This is an image of a hibiscus which shows the stigma and style of a carpel. The stigma is where pollen is recieved on the carpel. The style is the stalk of the carpel which connects the ovary and stigma.
This is a picture of a common daylily which shows the anther and filament of a stamen. This is where the pollen of a flower is stored and produced. The anther holds the pollen while the filament, a long stem-like structure, holds the anther up so pollinators can reach it. The anther can either be placed at the end of the filament (as pictured) or towards the center.
