What are the 3 parts of a pollen grain?
The three parts of a pollen grain are the exine (outer layer), intine (inner layer), and the cytoplasm containing the male gametes. The exine is composed of sporopollenin and helps protect the pollen grain during transportation and fertilization.
What is tricolpate pollen grain?
Tricolpate pollen grain is a type of pollen grain that has three colpi or furrows in its outer surface. It is characteristic of eudicots, one of the two main groups of flowering plants. The presence of three colpi is an important feature used in the classification of flowering plants.
What is the number of germ pores in a pollen grain of dicoits?
In dicotyledonous plants (dicots), pollen grains typically have three germ pores. These pores are openings in the outer layer of the pollen grain, allowing for the emergence of the pollen tube during fertilization. The presence of multiple germ pores is a characteristic feature that distinguishes dicots from monocots, which usually have one.
The purpose of a pollen grain on a flower?
The purpose of pollen is to transfer the male reproductive cells (sperm) to the female reproductive cells (ovules) and thus to allow sexual reproduction. Pollen can be so transferred by many methods - wind, gravity, insects, etc. The pollen receptive part of the flower (the stigma) is often sticky, or textured so the pollen will stick. Once attached the pollen grain grows a tube into the stigma and down the style into the ovule. This tube allows the male gametes to fertilise the ovule, creating a seed.
What is the Outer layer of grain?
The outer covering of the grain is called Husk. :) - HAO -

What are exine seeds?
In botany 'exine' is the outer coat, or the outer layer, of the wall of a pollen grain. It is composed of a durable organic polymer
What do you call the outer covering the grain?
The outer covering of the grain is called Husk.
Function of germ pore?
a pore in the outer wall of a spore or pollen grain through which the germ tube or pollen tube makes its exit on germination stoma, stomate, pore - a minute epidermal pore in a leaf or stem through which gases and water vapor can pass
What is a description of the Sporoderm Stratification?
Sporoderm stratification refers to the layering of the sporoderm, which is the outer layer of a pollen grain or spore. This stratification can consist of different layers with distinct compositions and functions, such as protecting the genetic material inside the pollen grain or aiding in dispersal. The structure and composition of sporoderm layers can vary among different plant species.

Grows from the pollen grain to the ovule?
Pollen tubes grow from the pollen grains to the ovules. Lipids on the surface of the stigma stimulate growth of the pollen tubes. Self sterile plants prevent themselves from growing seeds by not creating these lipids.

What is the pollen case?
What is usually meant by pollen case is the outer protective coat of the pollen grain. It is a highly modified cell wall, with two layers. The interior layer is largely pectocellulose (a combination of pectin and cellulose) with a bit of callose, and the exterior is made of sporopollenin. Sporopollenin is so tough that its exact chemical structure has not been figured out. Atop the sporopollenin layer is a deposit of sticky goo made of pollenkitt and/or tryphine.
What feature of a pollen grain makes it suited for being brushed off on insects?
Pollen grains have a unique structure that includes a sticky outer coating, often made of proteins and lipids, which helps them adhere to the bodies of insects. Additionally, their small, lightweight, and varied shapes allow them to easily attach to the fine hairs on insects as they visit flowers. This adaptation enhances the likelihood of pollination by facilitating the transfer of pollen from one flower to another as the insect moves.
Since corn is a Grain-then is stone ground Grits-Whole grain?
No, corn is not a grain. It is a vegetable.
