Answer 1

Dear student.

The statement is not true.

Pollen tube enters the embryo sac through the micropyle, chalaza or integument and penetrates one of the degenerating synergids. The contents of the pollen tube i.e sperm and cytoplasm are released either in synergids or in between egg or synergids.
