3. Anther: Anther is the part of the male reproductive organ of the plant that produces male gametes called pollen grains.

4. Stigma: Stigma is a part of the female reproductive organ of a plant that is sticky and hence receives pollens (the male flower gametes) and sends it down to style to get fertilized in the ovary.
