Q. Assertion: Pollen grains are well preserved as fossils.
Reason: The outer layer of pollen grains called the exine is made up of sporopollenin.

Q. Assertion :Pollen grains can be well preserved and used as microfossils. Reason: In certain places on pollen grains exine is absent and they have a thick layer of intine at these places.
