A) Pteris
B) Funaria
C) Llium
D) Pinus
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Lilium (angiosperm) possesses the male gametophyte with least number of cells. The number of cells in male gametophyte shows the pattern of reduction from bryophytes to angiosperms. In angiosperms, it is reduced to about 2-3 celled and called as pollen grains. Pollen grains are produced by meiosis of microspore mother cells that are located along the inner edge of the anther sacs (microsporangia). The number of cells in male gametophyte decreases in the following order. Funaira > Pteris > Pinus > Lilium
