Vegetative cell of male gametophyte of angiosperms is different from generative cell in the following aspects.
A. Size of cells                                 B. Shape of nucleus                           C. Capacity to divide
 

Vegetative cell of male gametophyte of angiosperms is different from generative cell in being larger in size, having irregularly shaped nucleus and not able to divide further and only involving in pollen tube formation. Generative cell is smaller, spindle shaped and floats in the cytoplasm of vegetative cell. It divides and gives rise male gametes.
