Q. Male gametes in angiosperms are formed by the division of :

(a) Generative cell

(b) Microspore cell

(c) Vegetative cell

(d) Tube cell

Solution :

Correct Option : A Each pollen grain contains vegetative (non-reproductive) cells and a generative cell (reproductive cell). In flowering plants the vegetative tube cell produces the pollen tube, and the generative cell divides to form the two sperm cells or male gametes.
So, the correct answer is ‘Generative cell’
