Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The stamen is composed of the anther and filament, and the anther is responsible for producing pollen. If there is an absence of an anther, it would indicate a developmental problem and the stamen would not function properly in terms of pollen production. The other structures listed (style, ovule, stigma, sepal) are not part of the stamen and would not indicate a problem with stamen development if absent.
