Best Answer

The purpose of pollen is to transfer the male reproductive cells (sperm) to the female reproductive cells (ovules) and thus to allow sexual reproduction. Pollen can be so transferred by many methods - wind, gravity, insects, etc. The pollen receptive part of the flower (the stigma) is often sticky, or textured so the pollen will stick. Once attached the pollen grain grows a tube into the stigma and down the style into the ovule. This tube allows the male gametes to fertilise the ovule, creating a seed.
