Open in App
Solution

In order to form a microspore tetrad, 1 meiosis is required. Each cell of the tetrad undergoes 2 mitotic divisions to form 2 male gametes. Actually microsporogenesis means formation of microspores or pollen grains. So, only 1 meiotic division is involved for the formation of four microspores.
