Vedclass · Answer

(A) The process of female gametophyte development involves the following steps:$1$. The diploid Megaspore Mother Cell $(2n)$ undergoes Meiosis to produce four haploid megaspores. This corresponds to stage $1$.$2$. The functional megaspore undergoes three successive rounds of Mitosis to form an $8$-nucleate embryo sac. This corresponds to stage $2$.$3$. The differentiation of the egg cell within the embryo sac does not involve further cell division (mitosis or meiosis) from the embryo sac stage; the egg is already formed as part of the egg apparatus. Thus,stage $3$ does not represent a division step.Therefore,the correct sequence is $1 = 	ext{Meiosis}$, $2 = 	ext{Mitosis}$ and $3 = 	ext{None}$.

Indicate the stages where meiosis and mitosis occur $(1, 2$ or $3)$ in the flow chart: Megaspore mother cell $\xrightarrow{1}$ Megaspores $\xrightarrow{2}$ Embryo sac $\xrightarrow{3}$ Egg.
