Question

Which process could occur in maple trees to decrease the chromosome number in pollen cells from 52 down to 26?

Answer 1

Meiosis

Explanation:

The process in maple trees that decreases the chromosome number in the pollen cells from 52 to 26 is called meiosis.

Meiosis is an important cell division process in which diploid cells are turned into their haploid number.

• In meiosis the cells divides into half and produces four daughter cells from the diploid 2n cells.
• The cell divides twice here. It is common in all sexually reproducing cells.
• It also occurs in all single celled organisms that reproduces sexually.
