Vedclass · Answer

(C) In angiosperms,the process of megasporogenesis results in the formation of four megaspores from a megaspore mother cell $(MMC)$ through meiosis.Out of these four megaspores,three degenerate,and only one remains functional.This single functional megaspore undergoes three successive rounds of free-nuclear mitotic divisions to form an $8$-nucleate structure,which eventually organizes into the embryo sac (also known as the female gametophyte).Therefore,the functional megaspore develops into the embryo sac.
