Ovule means "small egg". In seed plants, the ovule is the structure that gives rise to and contains the female reproductive cells. It consists of three parts: The integument(s) forming its outer layer(s), the nucellus (or megasporangium), and the megaspore-derived female gametophyte (or megagametophyte) in its center. The megagametophyte (also called embryo sac in flowering plants) produces an egg cell (or several egg cells in some groups) for fertilization.

If a male plant is next to a female will it pollinate it?

If pollen is transferred from the male plant or a male part of a plant to a female plant or female plant part, then it is possible for fertilization to occur. In plants that have both male and female plants, they can actually self-pollinate. In nature, other mechanism for cross-pollination include transport via wind, on the fur of animals, and on insects.
