medium
Male gametophyte in angiosperms produces
A
single sperm and two vegetative cells
B
three sperms
C
two sperms and a vegetative cell
D
single sperm and a vegetative cell.
(NEET-2015)
Solution
(c) : The protoplast of the male gametophyte divides mitotically to produce two unequal cells — a small generative cell and a large vegetative cell. The generative cell divides later into two nonmotile male gametes (or sperms). Thus, the male gametophyte in angiosperms produces two sperms and a vegetative cell. The vegetative cell, later on, grows to produce pollen tube.
