(D) Each stamen has a bilobed,dithecous anther,which means it contains $4$ microsporangia.Total number of microsporangia in $10$ stamens = $10 	imes 4 = 40$.Each microsporangium contains $5$ pollen mother cells (PMCs).Total number of PMCs in the flower = $40 	imes 5 = 200$.Each pollen mother cell undergoes meiosis to produce $4$ pollen grains.Total number of pollen grains = $200 	imes 4 = 800$.

$A$ flower has $10$ stamens,each having a bilobed,dithecous anther. If each microsporangium has $5$ pollen mother cells,how many pollen grains would be produced by the flower?
