Question:
I just want to ask that in chapter 2 that is a sexual reproduction in flowering plants in that where is exactly microsporangia located, like see 1st is stamen which has anther and filament then in anther there are 2 lobes so we call anther as bilobed structure then in each lobe there are 2 cavities so total 4 cavities in anther then in each cavity there are 4 microsporangia and now each microsporangia has 4 layers ?
am i correct ?
Answer:
Microsporangia or the pollen sacs are the sac like structures or cavities present within each lobe of a bilobed anther. Thus, according to the question asked the total four cavities seen in a bilobed anther represents the microsporangia. Microsporangia are the sites where microspores are formed after microsporogenesis.
Thus the last statement written in the query that states "then in each cavity there are 4 microsporangia and now each microsporangia has 4 layers" is incorrect.
