What to Focus On

  • Flower is the reproductive organ of angiosperms.
  • Sporophyte is diploid and gametophyte is haploid.
  • Gametophytic phase is highly reduced in flowering plants.
  • A typical flower has four whorls.
  • Anther is the terminal fertile part of the stamen.
  • Dithecous anther has four pollen sacs.
  • Microsporogenesis occurs by meiosis.
  • One microspore mother cell forms four haploid microspores.
  • Tapetum provides callase and sporopollenin precursors.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Pollen grains are the male gametes.

A dithecous anther has two pollen sacs because it has two lobes.

The tapetum is just a protective layer and has no role in pollen formation.
