  1. Name the parts of an angiosperm flower in which development of male and female gametophyte take place

Answer:

In an angiosperm flower, the male gametophyte (pollen grain) develops in the anther (specifically within the pollen sacs/microsporangia of the anther).

The female gametophyte (embryo sac) develops in the ovule, which is located inside the ovary of the flower.

So, concisely:

  • Male gametophyte: develops in the anther.

  • Female gametophyte: develops in the ovule.
