Megaspores, also
called macrospores, are a type of
spore that is
present in
heterosporous plants.
These plants have two
spore types,
megaspores and microspores...

female gametophyte (formed from a
haploid megaspore) in its center. The

- A
megaspore mother cell, or megasporocyte, is a
diploid cell in
plants in
which meiosis will occur,
resulting in the
production of four

- plants. The
smaller of these, the microspore, is male and the
larger megaspore is female.

- megagametogenesis, the
megaspore,
which arises from megasporogenesis,

megaspores are dis****d from

Microspores produce microgametophytes which produce sperm.
