The number of chromosomes in the shoot tip cells of a maize plant is 20. The number of chromosomes in the microspore mother cells of the same plant will be

Shoot tip cells and microspore mother cells both are diploid in maize plant. If number of chromosomes in shoot tip cell is (2n) = 20, then number of chromosomes in microspore mother cell will be (2n) = 20. Both microspore mother cells and shoot tip cells are diploid.
