Male gametophyte with least number of cells is present in

  1. Pteris
  2. Funaria
  3. Lilium
  4. Pinus.

Answer

(3) Lilium

Solution

The male gametophyte is most reduced in angiosperms.

∵ In Lilium (angiosperm) the pollen grain is shed at the 2-celled stage (vegetative cell + generative cell), and has at most 3 cells.

∵ In Pinus the male gametophyte has about 4 cells at shedding, while in Pteris and Funaria it is multicellular.

∴ The male gametophyte with least number of cells is present in Lilium.
