The pistil is the female part of the flower. When pollen is transfered from the stamen of the same flower or another flower of the same or similar type by wind, insects, or q-tips, a seed forms inside the pistil.

Plant breeders actually remove the stamen from selected flowers and place pollen from other flowers ion or in the pistil with q-tips so the plant that grows from the seed will have the desired characteristics.

What involves the transfer of pollen from the stamen stigma of the pistil where it grows in the tube of the ovary?

The process you're describing is known as pollination, which involves the transfer of pollen from the anther (part of the stamen) to the stigma (part of the pistil) of a flower. Once the pollen lands on the stigma, it germinates and grows a pollen tube down through the style into the ovary, where fertilization occurs. This process is essential for the production of seeds and fruit in flowering plants.
