Q

female gametophyte have…

A

seven cells and 8 nuclei

17
Q

pollen grain

A

two called male gametophyte and the spore wall

18
Q

pollen tube

A

produced by pollen grain. down into the ovary and discharges two sperm cells near the embryo sac

19
Q

pollination

A

transfer of pollen from an anther to a stigma

20
Q

wind pollination

A

produce small inconspicuous flowers that lack nectar or scent and release large amount o pollen

21
Q

double fertilization

A

result from the discharge of two sperm from the pollen tube into the embryo sac. one sperm fertilizes the egg, the other combines with the polar nuclei giving rise to the triploid food storing endosperm (3n).
