Question

How many meiotic divisions are required to produce 400 pollen grains in an angiosperm?

विकल्प

• 400

• 200

• 100

• 50

Answer 1

100

Explanation:

One meiotic division in a microspore mother cell produces 4 pollen grains. To produce 400 pollen grains, the number of meiotic divisions required = 400 ÷ 4 = 100. Hence, 100 meiotic divisions are needed to produce 400 pollen grains in an angiosperm.
