The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Pollen Grain Formation**: - Pollen grains are formed from pollen mother cells (PMCs) located in the microsporangia (also known as pollen sacs). 2. **Identifying the Structure of Pollen Grains**: - A mature pollen grain is considered a male gametophyte, which means it is involved in the male reproductive process. 3. **Components of a Pollen Grain**: - A mature pollen grain consists of two types of cells: - **Vegetative Cell**: This cell is larger and is responsible for the growth of the pollen tube. - **Generative Cell**: This cell is smaller and divides to form two male gametes (sperm cells). 4. **Counting the Nuclei**: - In total, a mature pollen grain contains **two nuclei**: - One nucleus from the vegetative cell. - One nucleus from the generative cell. 5. **Final Answer**: - Therefore, in a mature pollen grain, there are **two nuclei**: one from the vegetative cell and one from the generative cell. ---
