What is typically the result of double fertilization in angiosperms?
A) The endosperm develops into a diploid nutrient tissue.
B) A triploid zygote is formed.
C) Both a diploid embryo and triploid endosperm are formed.
D) Two embryos develop in every seed.
E) The antipodal cells develop into the seed coat.

Double fertilization in angiosperms results in the formation of a diploid zygote and a triploid endosperm. The zygote gives rise to the embryo, while the endosperm provides nutrients for the developing embryo.
