Q. During meiosis, a microspore mother cell has 12bivalents, the number of chromosomes in its pollen grain will be

BVP MedicalBVP Medical 2011

Solution:

If microspore mother cell has 12 bivalents(means 12 pairs of chromosomes or 24chromosomes), the spores (pollen) which are haploid will have only 12 chromosomes (n = 12).
