Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Diploid zygote will develop into ____ and finally forms the complete seed.
A
embryo
B
endosperm
C
testa
D
wall of fruit
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Zygote is a single cell produced by the fusion of a male gamete with the female gamete. In the case of plants, ovule contains the zygote. Eventually, the ovule develops into the seed and the zygote develops into the embryo.

Detailed explanation-2: -Once fertilization is complete, the resulting diploid zygote develops into the embryo, and the fertilized ovule forms the other tissues of the seed.

Detailed explanation-3: -First, the zygote becomes a solid ball of cells. Then it becomes a hollow ball of cells called a blastocyst. Inside the uterus, the blastocyst implants in the wall of the uterus, where it develops into an embryo attached to a placenta and surrounded by fluid-filled membranes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Fertilization is the process in which haploid gametes fuse to form a diploid cell called a zygote. To ensure that each zygote has the correct number of chromosomes, only one sperm can fuse with one egg.

Detailed explanation-5: -In flowering plants after fertilisation, the zygote develops into the embryo, the ovules develop into the seed and the ovary develops into the fruit.
