Question

give a main difference between vegetative cell and generative cell.

according to 12th class​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Vegetative cell is bigger in size, while the generative cell is smaller. Vegetative cell has an irregularly shaped nucleus, and the generative cell is spindle-shaped with dense cytoplasm & nucleus. Vegetative cell is also termed as Tube cell as it is responsible for growth of pollen tube.

Answer 2

$\huge\tt\red{Answer}$

The generative cell and sperm spend their natural lives encased by the vegetative cell. The generative cell is formed at the first division of the microspore and divides in the pollen grain or pollen tube to form two sperm cells. Thus, the generative cell is never “free” of the vegetative cell in which it is embedded.
