Question
Chapter 16, Problem 2WIO
Summary Introduction
To determine:
Whether an individual would observe variations in all the gametes produced from one gametophyte.
Introduction:
Production of gametes is regulated by the microspore mother cell (MMC). MMC undergo reductional division and produces four microspores. These microspores undergo mitosis and produce various gametophytes, which contain haploid set of gametes.
