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.
