The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the correct statements about the anther, we will analyze each option step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyzing Statement (a)**: - "Anther lobes are attached to each other by a band of vasculated sterile tissue." - The anther consists of two lobes, and these lobes are indeed connected by a vascular strand that is sterile. This statement is **correct**. 2. **Analyzing Statement (b)**: - "Fibrous bands are present in Hydrocharitaceae." - Fibrous bands are not present in Hydrocharitaceae; they are typically found in other plant families. Therefore, this statement is **incorrect**. 3. **Analyzing Statement (c)**: - "Microsporangia on maturity get filled with pollen grains." - Microsporangia are structures that contain microspore mother cells, which undergo meiosis to produce pollen grains. Upon maturity, these structures indeed become filled with pollen grains. Thus, this statement is **correct**. 4. **Analyzing Statement (d)**: - "Homogeneous mass of meristematic cells in microsporangium form microspore mother cells." - The microsporangium contains a homogeneous mass of meristematic cells that develop into microspore mother cells. This statement is also **correct**. 5. **Analyzing Statement (e)**: - "Cells of middle layers nourish the developing pollen grains." - The middle layers of the anther do not nourish the pollen grains; instead, it is the tapetum that provides nourishment. Therefore, this statement is **incorrect**. ### Conclusion: From the analysis, we find that statements (a), (c), and (d) are correct, while statements (b) and (e) are incorrect. Thus, the correct answer is: **(a), (c), and (d)**.
