Solution
The correct option is C Haploid The pollen grain, itself is diploid. It is the male gametophyte, thee generation which produces the gametes. The second is the gametes which undergoes meiosis reduction division, becoming two haploid gametes, one of the which unites with the female haploid ovum to produce the gametes at the tip of the seed. So, there ploidy level is n or we can say that they are haploid .
