Answer 2

Answer:

From the given statements 2 and 4 are incorrect or false.

Explanation:

• The reproductive cell within a pollen tube is the male gamete. They are motile so as to move towards the female gamete and fertilise it.
• Plants are pollinated by different factors like wind, river, honeybee, etc. In order to increase the chances of fertilisation, male gametes are produced in a large quantity. Female gametes are produced in considerably lower number.

Therefore, from the given statements 2 and 4 are incorrect.
