Answer: (d) Synergids

Explanation:

2n = 12 n = 6         ..(given)

All the diploid structures (leaf cells, cotyledons) will have 12 chromosomes.

Endosperm being triploid will have 18 chromosomes (3n=18).

Synergids are haploid structures found in the embryo sac, therefore will have 6 chromosomes.
