In majority of angiospenns

Question

In majority of angiospenns (A) egg has a filifonn apparatus (B) there are numerous antipodal cells (C) reduction division occurs in the megaspore mother cells (D) a small central cell is present in the embryo sac

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

In most of the angiosperms, the megaspore mother cell

(2 n)

divides meiotically (reductional division) to produce

4

cells.
Out of these, three degenerate and the remaining one forms the functional megaspore. This further divides mitotically and forms embryo sac.

Q. In majority of angiospenns

egg has a filifonn apparatus

there are numerous antipodal cells

reduction division occurs in the megaspore mother cells

a small central cell is present in the embryo sac

In most of the angiosperms, the megaspore mother cell (2n) divides meiotically (reductional division) to produce 4 cells. Out of these, three degenerate and the remaining one forms the functional megaspore. This further divides mitotically and forms embryo sac.

In most of the angiosperms, the megaspore mother cell $(2 n)$ divides meiotically (reductional division) to produce $4$ cells.
Out of these, three degenerate and the remaining one forms the functional megaspore. This further divides mitotically and forms embryo sac.
