Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Meiosis occurs in both the megasporocyte (I) and microsporocyte (II) in flowering plants, as these structures give rise to the female and male gametophytes (respectively) through meiosis. Endosperm (III) is a byproduct of fertilization and does not involve meiosis, and pollen tube (IV) is a structure used by the male gametophyte to reach the female gametophyte and does not involve meiosis either.
