The female reproductive organ of a flower

Real World Example

Imagine trying to send a letter to a friend without knowing their exact address. Just like how the address guides the letter to its destination, the pistil guides pollen to its final destination for fertilization. In this analogy, the pistil is like the address on the envelope; it is the crucial component that ensures the pollen reaches the ovules, enabling the flower to reproduce just as an address ensures your letter reaches the right person.
