Angiosperms do not need water for fertilization. Why? (3 points) Group of answer choices Flagellated sperm travel to the ovary i
astraxan [27]

Answer:

A pollen tube grows from the pollen grain into the ovary

Explanation:

Water is needed for fertilization in several plant groups because the sperm needs to swim to meet the non-motile eggs of the female organs.

<em>Hence, water is really not necessary for fertilization in the angiosperms.</em>
