Solution
Pollen mother cell (PMC) is also called Microspore mother cell(MMC). Yes, these pollen mother cells are actually sporogenous tissues. These are the diploid cells found in the anther which give rise to four haploid micropores through meiosis, each of which develops into male gametophyte (pollen grains).
