The "silks" are the female flowers. The "stalk" at the top is the male flower. Pollen from the stalk is windblown around and some of it inevitably sticks to the silks. For every silk that is pollinated, that ear of corn will have one kernel develop - hence the majority of silks must catch a grain of pollen to have well-filled ears. Ears "missing" kernels (usually near the tip) had a few silks that did not get pollen grains. Since corn is wind pollinated, it should alwyas be planted in blocks (like 4x4, 8x8) to help assure pollination.

Flower is a male or female?
Flowers can be male, female or both. If the flowers have male and female structures they are said to be perfect. Imperfect flowers have either male or female reproductive structures. If a plant has male and female flowers on one plant it is said to be monoecious (which means "one house"). Squash and corn plants are monoecious. If the male and female flowers are on separate plants, they are said to be dioecious (which means "two houses"). Hollies, kiwi and ginko plants are dioecious.
