Which of the Following Occurs in an Angiosperm Ovule

Question

Which of the following occurs in an angiosperm ovule?
A) An antheridium forms from the megasporophyte.
B) A megaspore mother cell undergoes meiosis.
C) The egg nucleus is usually diploid.
D) A pollen tube emerges to accept pollen after pollination.
E) The endosperm surrounds the megaspore mother cell.

Accepted Answer

In angiosperms, the ovule contains the megasporangium, which contains the megaspore mother cell. The megaspore mother cell undergoes meiosis to produce four haploid cells, one of which develops into the functional megaspore that will ultimately develop into the female gametophyte.
