Solution

The correct option is B Development of pollen
The formation of microspores inside the microsporangia of seed plants is called as microsporogenesis. A diploid cell in the microsporangium called as microsporocyte or a pollen mother cell, undergoes meiosis and gives rise to four haploid microspores. Each microspore then develops into a pollen grain. Thus, the correct answer is option B.
