The correct answer is

Stamen includes both anther and filament.

The stamen is the male reproductive part of a flower, and it has two components: the anther, which is the sac that produces pollen grains, and the filament, which is the stalk that holds the anther up. So "Stamen includes both anther and filament" is the correct description.

"Ovary is located in the stamen" is wrong because the ovary belongs to the female part (the pistil/carpel), not the male stamen.

"Pistil functions as the male part" is wrong because the pistil (stigma, style, and ovary) is the female reproductive part; the stamen is the male part.

"Pollen is created in the ovule" is wrong because pollen is produced in the anther of the stamen, while the ovule (inside the ovary) develops into the seed after fertilisation.

Hence, the correct description is that the stamen includes both the anther and the filament.
