Solution
The correct option is C A and B are correct; C and D are wrong
Diploid zygote and triploid PEN are the products of double fertilization Since endosperm is a product of the fusion of three haploid nuclei, it is called a triple fusion. After the meiotic division, four haploid microspores are produced from each diploid sporogenous cell in a process called Microsporogenesis.So the correct option is 'A and B are correct; C and D are wrong.'
