It is part of the inner structure of the ovule, forming a layer of diploid (sporophytic) cells immediately inside the integuments. It is structurally and functionally equivalent to the megasporangium.
- The tissue that makes up the greater part of the ovule of seed plants.
- It contains the embryo sac and nutritive tissue.
- It is enclosed by the integuments except for a small gap, the micropyle.
- In certain flowering plants it may persist after fertilization and provide nutrients for the embryo.
- The nucleus is a spherical-shaped organelle that is present in every eukaryotic cell.
- The Nucleus is the control centre of eukaryotic cells. It is also responsible for the coordination of genes and gene expression.
- The structure of the nucleus includes nuclear membrane, chromosomes, nucleoplasm, and nucleolus.
- A double-membraned organelle known as the nuclear membrane/envelope engirdles the nucleus.
- The nucleolus is found within the nucleus, occupying 25% per cent of the volume.
- Thread-like, dense structures known as chromatins are found within the nucleus containing proteins and DNA.
- The mechanical strength for the nucleus is provided by the nuclear matrix, a network of fibres and filaments which performs functions similar to the cytoskeleton.
