The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Emasculation**: Emasculation is a process used in plant breeding where a specific part of the flower is removed to prevent self-pollination. 2. **Identifying Flower Parts**: In a flower, the main parts include the anther (male), stigma (female), ovule (female), and perianth (which is not directly involved in reproduction). 3. **Focus on the Anther**: The anther is the part of the flower that produces pollen grains, which are necessary for fertilization. 4. **Purpose of Emasculation**: The primary goal of emasculation is to prevent self-pollination. This is done by removing the anther from bisexual flowers, which contain both male and female reproductive organs. 5. **Conclusion**: Since emasculation involves the removal of the male part of the flower to prevent self-pollination, the correct answer to the question is the anther. **Final Answer**: The part of the flower removed in emasculation is the **anther**. ---
