Question

Question 36 2 pt Which of the following statements correctly describes a portion of the pine life cycle? Apollen tube slowly digests its way through the triploid endosperm. Seeds are produced in pollen-producing cones. Pollen grains contain female gametophytes. O Female gametophytes produce eggs.

Answer 1

1) female gametophyte produce eggs.

In pines female gametophyte to produce eggs through mitosis. When megaspore goes through mitosis and produces a small female gametophyte which has two or three archegonia with one egg cell in each.

meanwhile other options those were wrong because:

pollen grains contain female gametophytes in angiosperm, pinus is actually gymnosperm.

Seeds are produced in pollen-producing cones, the egg becomes an embryo in a seed, and female cone can contain seeds.

a pollen tube slowly digests its way through the triploid endosperm, it is unique in angiosperm, not gymnosperm.

2)Ovule

Ovule that converts into seed are most common in both but their composition is very different.
