  1. Lignocellulose

  2. Sporopollenin

  3. Pectocellulose

  4. Pectolignin

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Abundant occurrence and preservation of the fossil pollen grains result from the extremely resistant nature of the outer wall of the pollen grains. This wall is the exine and composed of a compound commonly known as sporopollenin. It originates from the polymerization of carotenoids and carotenoid esters.

Thus the correct answer is B. 

Which of the following pair has haploid structures?

  1. Callose

  2. Pecto-cellulose

  3. Ligno-cellulose

  4. Sporopollenin

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The pollen is having two layers. The tough outer layer is referred to as the exine. This sophisticated and complex outer layer is having a compound known as sporopollenin. It is waterproof, resistant to the deterioration and very stiff as well. This shell is actually one of nature's most advanced polymers. It ensures that the tender cells must have a strong chance of survival.

Thus the correct answer is option D.
