• B. Male gametes reaches the female gamete$\to$Pollination$\to$Fruit formation $\to$Fertilisation
• C. Pollination$\to$Fertilisation$\to$Male gamete reaches the female gamete$\to$Fruit formation
• D. Male gamete reaches the female gamete$\to$Pollination$\to$Fertilisation$\to$Fruit formation

Answer 1

The correct option is A Pollination$\to$Male gamete reaches the female gamete$\to$Fertilisation$\to$Fruit formation

$\bullet$ Pollination is the transfer of pollen grains from the anther to the stigma of a flower. Pollen grains carry the male gamete.
$\bullet$ The male gamete travels down the style through the pollen tube and enters the ovary, where it fertilises the ovule.
$\bullet$ Fertilisation involves the fusion of male and the female gametes. It results in the formation of zygote.
$\bullet$ After fertilisation, ovary develops into fruit, while the ovules develop into seeds.
