To write:
This is the reason for which seeds of eudicots lack the extensive amount of endosperm.
Introduction:
Eudicots are
Eudicots are separated into 2 groups: basal eudicots and core eudicots. The majority of this species come under core eudicots. The reproduction of Eudicots occurs by both sexual reproduction and vegetative reproduction.

- In an angiosperm life cycle, sexual reproduction includes: meiosis within the male gametophyte to produce sperm. meiosis within the female gametophyte to produce eggs. meiosis within the ovary to produce megaspores. fertilization leading to development of microspores. fertilization leading to development of megaspores.arrow_forwardBoth gymnosperm and angiosperm bear seed ,then why are they classified seperatedly?arrow_forwardHow is the nutritive tissue in the seeds of gymnosperms formed?arrow_forward
- What is the endosperm? From which cell of the female gametophyte is it derived? Compare the storage site of endosperm in monocot and dicot seeds.arrow_forwardIn mango seed, orange seed, and apple seed, what are the type of endosperm when present?arrow_forwardGymnosperm A) How are the seeds of pine trees dispersed away from the parent plant? b) Suggest an advantage of dispersing seeds away from parent plants.arrow_forward
- Which statement below is correct regarding the formation of the endosperm in angiosperms? O the endosperm is formed from the female gametophyte and is haploid O a single sperm nucleus fertilizes the egg nucleus to become the diploid zygote O a sperm nucleus forms both the zygote and the endosperm through double fertilization O a second sperm nucleus fuses with the two polar nuclei of the egg sac МacВook Pro G Search or type URL @ 2# $ & * 2 3 4 6 8 W E R Yarrow_forwardWhat is the hilum of the seed?
