Question

__________________ directly develops into male gametophyte in angiosperms.

• A. Microspore
• B. Microsporangia
• C. Sporogenous tissue
• D. Endothecium

Answer 1

The correct option is A Microspore

Microspores are haploid plant spores that develop into male gametophyte (pollen grains) in angiosperms.

Microsporangia is a sac-like enclosure that contains developing spores and the cells that give rise to it.

Sporogenous tissue is a group of spore-producing cells present in the microsporangium.

Endothecium is a layer present in microsporangia that provides protection to young anther and helps in its dehiscence when mature.
