Differentiate between microsporogenesis and megasporogenesis. Which type of cell division occur during these events ? Name the structure formed at the end of these two events

Text Solution

Verified by Experts


Both events (microsporogenesis and megasporogenesis) involve the process of meiosis or reduction division which results in the formation of haploid gametes from the microspore and megaspore mother cells. Microsporogenesis results in the formation of haploid microspores from a diploid microspore mother cell. On the other hand, megasporogenesis results in the formation of haploid megaspores from a diploid megaspore mother cell.
