Solution
The correct option is D Growth hormone
Endosperm
The endosperm in angiosperms is produced during double fertilisation by the process of triple fusion between one of the haploid male gametes and the diploid central cell. Its growth is promoted by certain plant growth hormones, such as auxins.
Insufficiency of such growth hormones in some seeds results in the absence of endosperm.
Final answer
b. Growth hormone.
