(a) cellular endosperm free-nuclear endosperm
(b) free-nuclear endosperm cellular endosperm
(c) helobial endosperm cellular endosperm
(d) free-nuclear endosperm helobial endosperm

Sexual Reproduction in Flowering Plants

Solution:

In coconut (Cocos nucifera), the surrounding white kernel called coconut meal is cellular endosperm and the coconut water (also called coconut milk) in the centre is free nuclear endosperm made up of thousands of nuclei.
