Assertion: Ubisch bodies are produced by glandular tape tum.
Reason: Ubisch bodies participated in the thickening of exine.

Answer

  1. Both assertion and reason are true, but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Explanation:

The Ubisch bodies are produced only by the glandular tape tum. Ubisch bodies get covered with sporopollenin and thus increase thickening of exine. The Ubisch bodies are involved in the external thickening of the exine, whose pattem is laid down by the spore cytoplasm in the tetrad stage.
