Answer:

To receive pollen grains

Explanation:

A flower is a modified shoot which is meant for reproduction. The stamen is the male reproductive organ and the pistil is a flower's female organ. A pistil is located in the centre of the flower and is surrounded by petals, sepals and stamens.

Some flowers have a long pistil that reaches above the petals to receive wind disseminated pollen grains. This helps transfer pollen and fertilize the ova in the ovaries.
