Solution

The correct option is D Primary Endosperm Nucleus
Double fertilisation is the process which involves the fusion of one male gamete with the egg to form a zygote and the other male gamete with the polar nuclei (secondary nucleus) to form a primary endosperm nucleus (PEN). The PEN eventually develops into the endosperm.
