The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the release of pollen grains from the microsporangium and their direct contact with the opening of ovules, we will follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Terms**: - **Pollen Grain**: This is the male gametophyte in seed plants that carries the male gametes. - **Microsporangium**: This is the structure in which pollen grains are produced in seed plants. - **Ovule**: This is the structure that develops into a seed after fertilization and contains the female gametes. 2. **Identifying the Plant Group**: - The question refers to a specific group of plants where pollen grains are released and come into direct contact with the ovules. This is a characteristic feature of **gymnosperms**. 3. **Characteristics of Gymnosperms**: - Gymnosperms are known as "naked seed" plants because their seeds are not enclosed in an ovary wall. - In gymnosperms, the male gametes (pollen grains) are produced in microsporangia and are directly transferred to the ovules without any intermediary structures. 4. **Analyzing the Options**: - We need to identify which of the given options includes gymnosperms. - The options are: - Ficus and Pisum (both are angiosperms) - Eucalyptus and Mangifera (both are angiosperms) - Pinus and Ginkgo (both are gymnosperms) - Ectancer (not a recognized plant group) 5. **Conclusion**: - The correct answer is **Pinus and Ginkgo**, as both are examples of gymnosperms where pollen grains are released from microsporangia and come into direct contact with the ovules. ### Final Answer: The pollen grain is released from the microsporangium and directly comes in contact with the opening of ovules in **Pinus and Ginkgo**. ---
