sporopollenin
Pollen grains are spherical in shape. They are 25-50 micrometres in diameter. It has a prominent two-layered wall. The hard outer layer called the exine is made up of
sporopollenin. It can withstand high temperatures and strong acids and alkali. Pollen grains are well preserved as fossils because of the presence of sporopollenin. Pollen grain exine has prominent apertures called germ pores, where sporopollenin is absent. The inner wall of the pollen grain, intine is a thin and continuous layer made up of cellulose and pectin.
