2. Enlist the functions of micropyle prior to fertilization and after fertilization in the ovule of angiosperms.
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
The integuments develop into the seed coat when the ovule matures after fertilization. The integuments do not enclose the nucellus completely but retain an opening at the apex referred to as the micropyle. The micropyle opening allows the pollen (a male gametophyte) to enter the ovule for fertilization.
Answer:
The micropyle opening allows the pollen (a male gametophyte) to enter the ovule for fertilization. In gymnosperms (e.g., conifers), the pollen is drawn into the ovule on a drop of fluid that exudes out of the micropyle, the so-called pollination drop mechanism. ... In angiosperms, only a pollen tube enters the micropyle.
