EASY
Which is the most common mechanism of genetic variation in the population of sexually-reproducing organism?
EASY

The plant parts which consist of two generations one within the other:

(a) Pollen grains inside the anther
(b) Germinated pollen grain with two male gametes
(c) Seed inside the fruit
(d) Embryo sac inside the ovule

MEDIUM

Assertion (A): Pollengrains are well preserved as fossils

Reason (R): The exine of pollen grains is made up of sporopollenin, which can withstand high temperatures, strong acids and alkali.

MEDIUM

Assertion A: Xenogamy involves transfer of pollen grains from the flower of one plant to the stigma of another plant.

Reason R: This is the only type of pollination which brings genetically different types of pollen grains to the stigma.
