Solution:
Primary sporogenous cell gives rise to microspore mother cells or pollen mother cells (PMCs). They are sporophytic in naturei.e., diploid. These cells undergo meiosis (reduction division) which gives rise to 4 microspores or pollens and this formation of microspores or pollens is called microspore-genesis. Microspores represent the beginning of the gametophytic phase and they are haploid in nature.
