Solution

The correct option is A 1000
The microsporangia produce the microsporocyte which is also known as the microspore mother cell, which then creates four microspores through meiosis. The microspores divide to create pollen grains. Therefore, 250 microsporocytes will give rise to 250 x 4 = 1000 microspores.
