Answer: Only options A, B, C and D are true statements
A) One sperm fuses with an egg while the other sperm fuses with the polar nuclei.
B) It results in the formation of a diploid embryo and triploid endosperm.
C) Both sperms involved in double fertilization form within the same pollen tube.
- The diploid nucleus resulting from the second fertilization undergoes meiosis to form the endosperm.
Explanation:
Double fertilization is a process that occurs in only flowering plants. It involves the following:
- A pollen grain produces TWO male gametes
- one male gamete fertilize the egg to form a zygote that is DIPLOID (with two basic sets of chromosomes)
- the second male gamete fuses with another cell named POLAR NUCLEI, to form endosperm (the food storing tissue) in the seed. The endosperm formed is TRIPLOID ( it has three sets of chromosomes), having undergone reductive division - meiosis
Thus, the options A, B, C and D are true statements
In order to balance the chemical equation, you need to make sure the number of atoms of each element on the reactant side is equal to the number of atoms of each element on the product side. In order make both sides equal, you will need to multiply the number of atoms in each element until both sides are equal
