A. Test tube culture

B. Cellular totipotency

C. Organogenesis

D. Double fertilisation

Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Embryoids formed in tissue culture from pollen grains are due to Cellular totipotency.
Cellular totipotency is the inherent potentiality of a plant cell to give rise to a whole plant, a capacity that is retained even after a cell has undergone final differentiation in the plant body.
A cell can differentiate into other cell types. The more cell types a cell can differentiate into, the greater its potency.
