What does the zygote develop into?

Step-by-step solution

After entering one of the synergids, the pollen tube releases the two male gametes into the cytoplasm of the synergid. This results in the formation of a diploid cell, the zygote. The other male gamete moves towards the two polar nuclei located in the central cell and fuses with them to produce a triploid primary endosperm nucleus (PEN As this involves the fusion of three haploid nuclei it is termed triple fusion. Since two types of fusions, syngamy and triple fusion take place in an embryo sac the phenomenon is te
