Solution

The correct option is A

Carpels produce egg cells


The stamens are male reproductive structures that produce pollen. The carpels are female reproductive structures that produce egg cells and protect a developing baby plant, or embryo. The three main parts of a carpel are the stigma, style, and ovary.
