Stigma & style of carpel

The carpel is an organ at the center of the flower  that holds ovules in an ovary. It consists of a stigma, which is at the tip of the carpel, and is receptive to pollen. It also has a style, which connects the stigma to the ovary. My thumb is pointing to the carpel of this flower.
