Question

In diploid organisms, which of the following undergoes meiosis?

• A. Vegetative cell
• B. Sporogenous tissue
• C. Pollen grain
• D. Synergids

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

In plants, meiosis occurs in sporogenous tissue to produce spores. Other cells like vegetative cells do not undergo meiosis.

Answer 2

• Meiosis is the process that reduces the chromosome number by half to form haploid cells from diploid cells.
• In diploid organisms, meiosis typically occurs in sporogenous tissue (in plants), where it gives rise to haploid spores. These spores then develop into the next generation.
• Vegetative cells, pollen grains, and synergids do not undergo meiosis. Vegetative cells and synergids are diploid cells, and pollen grains are typically formed by the process of mitosis (not meiosis).
