One of the changes that would occur in an ovary of flowering plants after double fertilisation is that the
Correct answer: C. Polar nuclei will form triploid endosperm
- A. Pollen tube will disappear
- B. Antipodal cells will double in number
- C. Polar nuclei will form triploid endosperm
- D. Egg cell will fuse with synergids to form diploid zygote
Explanation
In flowering plants, double fertilization involves two key events: one sperm cell fuses with the egg cell to form a diploid zygote, and the other sperm cell fuses with the two polar nuclei to form a triploid cell that develops into the endosperm. Therefore, the correct answer is Option C: polar nuclei will form triploid endosperm. The other options describe processes or changes that do not occur in the context of double fertilization or within the ovary following this event.
