Solution

The correct option is A 8 nuclei
The normal type of embryo sac development has been studied in polygonum by Strasburger. Since this embryo sac develops from one megaspore, that is why it is called as monosporic embryo sac. It develops from functional chalazal of functional megaspore. The nucleus of functional megaspore divides by three mitotic divisions to form 8 nuclei. Thus, the correct answer is option C.
