A. 200
B. 250
C. 300
D. 100
Answer: Option B
Solution (By Examveda Team)
250 pollen mother cells will form 1000 pollen grains.One diploid microspore mother cells by meiosis form 4 tetrads of haploid microspores which become 4 pollen grains.
Thus, 250 pollen mother cells will produce 1000 pollen grains, by undergoing 50 rounds of meiosis.
