Question

what is heterospermy??​

Answer 1

Heterospory is the production of spores of two different sizes and sexes by the sporophytes of land plants. The smaller of these, the microspore, is male and the larger megaspore is female.

Answer 2

Answer:

The phenomenon where an organism produces sperms or male gametes of different sizes and shapes i.e. different morphological features is called heterospermy.

Explanation:

This phenomenon of heterospermy is seen in some very lower plants like Chlamydomonas, etc, where the male plant produces four sperms at a time, where two are smaller in size, and two are much larger. Although they don’t differ in genetic content, most often the smaller one ends up fertilizing the female gamete.
