In the majority of flowering plants, a certain pattern is followed in megaspore mother cell (MMC) undergoing meiosis and producing megaspores. How many functional megaspores would be produced with 32 MMC? |
96 32 128 62 |
32 |
The correct answer is Option (2) → 32 In most flowering plants (monosporic development), each megaspore mother cell (MMC) undergoes meiosis → 4 megaspores, but only 1 becomes functional and the other 3 degenerate. |
