Solution

The correct option is A Promitotic phase
Most commonly the male nucleus of the flowering plant fuses immediately with the egg nucleus in premitotic phase. This process of fusion is called as premitotic karyogamy. After a short hiatus, the zygote nucleus passes through S phase, G2 phase and mitotic phase to complete the first zygotic division.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
