उत्तर

  1. The pollen grain germinates over the stigma and gives rise to pollen tube.
  2. The pollen tube bursts and releases two male gametes in the embryo sac.
  3. One male gamete fuses with the egg cell to form the zygote, whereas the second male gamete fuses with two polar nuclei in the embryo sac to form an endosperm.
  4. Since, in flowering plants, the process of fertilization occurs twice in the same embryo sac, by two male gametes, it is called as double fertilization.
