The tip of a corn ear is called the "silk." These long, thread-like strands emerge from the ear and are crucial for pollination, as they carry pollen from the tassels to the ovules within the ear. Each silk corresponds to a potential kernel on the cob. Once pollination occurs, the silk turns brown and withers, while the kernels begin to develop.
