Solution

Pollen grains:
Pollen grains are dust-like, fine yellow particles released from the anthers (of stamens) of a flower on maturity.
Stamens are the male reproductive part of the flower.
Each stamen has two parts, a filament, and anther.
The anther is a bilobed structure present at the tip of the filament. An anther contains fine particles called pollen grains.
