The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the statements about pollen grain cells, we will evaluate each statement one by one to determine whether they are true or false. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Statement 1: The vegetative cell has an abundant food reserve.** - **Evaluation:** This statement is **True**. The vegetative cell in pollen grains is larger and is known to store food reserves which are important for the growth of the pollen tube during fertilization. 2. **Statement 2: The vegetative cell has a large irregularly shaped nucleus.** - **Evaluation:** This statement is also **True**. The vegetative cell does indeed have a large nucleus that is typically irregularly shaped. 3. **Statement 3: The generative cell is small and is fixed in the cytoplasm of the vegetative cells.** - **Evaluation:** This statement is **False**. While the generative cell is smaller than the vegetative cell, it is not fixed in the cytoplasm. Instead, it is released during the process of pollen tube formation. 4. **Statement 4: The generative cell is spindle-shaped and has dense cytoplasm.** - **Evaluation:** This statement is **True**. The generative cell is indeed spindle-shaped and contains dense cytoplasm. ### Summary of Evaluations: - Statement 1: True - Statement 2: True - Statement 3: False - Statement 4: True ### Conclusion: The correct combination of true and false statements is: **True, True, False, True**.
