Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Haploid male gametes, pollen, are formed within the anthers of the androecium. Haploid female gametes, eggs, are formed within the ovary of the gynoecium.
Detailed explanation-2: -Haploid cells are found in gametes cells. Therefore, in a flower, the haploid cells will be found in the pollen grains and the ovules.
Detailed explanation-3: -It is diploid (2n) in structure.
Detailed explanation-4: -What is a haploid plant? Haploid plants originate from gametes (or gamete-like cells) that do not go through fertilization, but can still generate a viable individual. Therefore, haploids contain only the chromosome set found after meiosis in male (sperm cells) or female (egg cells) gametes.
