Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Microsporogenesis produces pollen grains. The microsporangium’s diploid pollen mother cells divide via meiosis to produce four haploid microspores or microspore tetrads.
Detailed explanation-2: -In microsporogenesis, the anther primordiums (diploid) dedifferentiate and form diploid sporogenous cells, which will later differentiate as microsporocytes (diploid) that form four microspores (haploid) via meiosis.
