After double fertilization in angiosperms, the products of syngamy and triple fusion are _______ and ________ respectively.
- A diploid embryo and triploid endosperm
- B diploid embryo and diploid endosperm
- C triploid embryo and haploid endosperm
- D triploid embryo and diploid endosperm
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) diploid embryo and triploid endosperm
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Syngamy is the fusion of haploid female gamete (n) and haploid male gamete (n) to form diploid zygote (2n). In triple fusion, second haploid male gamete (n) fuses with diploid secondary nucleus (2n) producing PEN that develops into triploid endosperm (3n).
