Explain why it is helpful for pollen grains to respire anaerobically.


I guess the pollen grains are using different electron acceptors. Instead of oxygen, it is using carbon dioxide, nitrate, sulfates etc. As there are pollen grains which belong to green plants, I would tend to carbon dioxide. *
Thanks this helped a lot
