  1. Microspore
  2. Generative cell
  3. Vegetative cell
  4. Microspore mother cell

A
Microspore

D

Solution
Verified by Toppr

Each pollen grain contains vegetative (non-reproductive) cells and a generative cell (reproductive cell). In flowering plants the vegetative tube cell produces the pollen tube, and the generative cell divides to form the two sperm cells or male gametes.
So, the correct answer is 'Generative cell'
