Hint:
A typical anther has 4 sporangia.
Solution:
25 PMC in each sporangium.
Thus total PMCs are = 25 × 4 = 100
Since 1 PMC → 1 tetrad → 4 microspores or pollen grains
100 PMC = 100 tetrads and 4 × 100 = 400 pollen grains
1 pollen grain produces 2 male gametes
Therefore, 400 pollen grains will produce = 400 × 2 = 800 male gametes.
(95) Answer : (B)
Solution:
All these events-from pollen deposition on stigma until pollen tubes enter the ovule-are together referred to as pollen-
pistil interaction.
(96) Answer : (B)
Solution:

Placenta a source of many hormones is a structural and functional connection between maternal and foetal tissue.
Solution:
Umbilical cord carries only foetal blood. CRH stimulates anterior pituitary to release ACTH. ACTH from both mother and
foetus acts on adrenal cortex to release cortisol. This cortisol prepares foetal lungs for respiration. ACTH also stimulates
adrenal glands to release DHEA which gets converted into estrogen. High levels of estrogen sets in motion the events
that initiate labor.
