46
Q

what does meiosis result in male sporangium of gymnosperm (pine)

A

four male spores which each develop a male gametophyte

47
Q

what is the process of pollination

A

pollen grains are released from male pollen cone and reach the scales of female cones

48
Q

what occurs after pollination in gymnosperm (pine)

A

pollen tube begins to grow toward egg of female gameophyte

49
Q

what does each sporophyll of each female cone have

A

female sporangium
- meiosis followed by mitosis gives rise to female gametophyte
