Solution
The correct option is C Triploid
In angiosperms, double fertilization takes place, where two male gametes enter the embryo sac. One of the gametes fuse with the egg cell which forms the embryo. Whereas the other one fuses with secondary nuclei, which is diploid in nature. This results in the formation of triploid endosperm which provides nourishment to the growing embryo.
