Answer 2

Answer:

Pollen is a small grain that consists of a few cells. To the naked eye it appears as a yellowish (pale yellow) dust-like substance that is either dispersed by wind or insects.

Pollen is formed within the sacs (or microsporangia) in the anthers that are located in plant flowers. The development of plant anthers also involves the growth and differentiation of tissue that develop to produce the pollen sacs. This is then followed by a process of cell division (meiosis) that results in the formation of clusters referred to as quartets within the pollen sac chambers.
