If there are four cells in a anther, what will be the number of pollen grains?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
16
Option D (16) is correct because each anther typically has four microsporangia (pollen sacs), and each microspore mother cell within these sacs undergoes meiosis to produce four pollen grains. If there are four cells in an anther, and each cell is a microspore mother cell, then 4 cells * 4 pollen grains/cell = 16 pollen grains.
