Question

Each cell of microspore tetrad is
(A) 2n
(B) n
(C) Some n and some 2n
(D) 3n​

Answer 1

Answer: (B) n

Explanation:  B) n is the correct option of thbis question.

N is the microspore tetrade cell.

Meiosis occurs in pollen mother cells to form the microspore tetrad. If the plant is diploid, the microspore tetrad's cells will be haploid.

Microspore tetrad cells are made up of four microspores. Microspores are generated from microspore mother cells (MMC). MMC is a diploid cell that performs meiosis to produce four haploid microspores grouped in a tetrad. This is known as microsporogenesis.
