Question

Microsporogenesis is a synonym for ____

Answer 1

Microsporogenesis:

1. Microsporogenesis is the production of microspores within a microsporangium by meiotic or reduction division (or pollen sac).
2. The process of pollen grains originating from microspores is known as Microgametogenesis.
3. Microsporangia is bi-lobed pollen sacs found near the end of the long filament-like stamen in the anther of the plant.
4. Microsporangia (anther) produce pollen or microspores.
5. Microsporogenesis is a critical phase in plant reproduction that entails a series of developmental events that result in microspores being produced from sporogenous cells. Any unexpectedly interrupted meiotic process reduces gamete viability.
