Short Answer

Solution
Since two types of fusions, syngamy and triple fusion, take place in an embryo sac, the phenomenon is termed double fertilisation, an event unique to flowering plants. The central cell after triple fusion becomes the primary endosperm cell (PEC) and develops into the endosperm, while the zygote develops into an embryo.
