A. 4

B. 2

C. 3

D. 5

Answer: Option B

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Teliospores of rust have germ pores in two numbers.
Teliospore (sometimes called teleutospore) is the thick-walled resting spore of some fungi (rusts and smuts), from which the basidium arises.
Teliospores consist of dikaryotic cells. As the teliospore cells germinate, the nuclei undergo karyogamy and thereafter meiosis, giving rise to a four-celled basidium with haploid basidiospores.
