Question

Describe megasporogenesi ? ( 12 th Maharashtra board )​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Megasporogenesis is the process of formation of megaspores in the angiosperms. ... It undergoes meiosis to produce four megaspores. In most flowering plants, only one megaspore is functional while the other three degenerate. The single functional megaspore develops into the female gametophyte.

Answer 2

The process of formation of megaspores from the megaspore mother cell is called megasporogenesis. The megaspore mother cell undergoes mitosis to form two nuclei that migrate to opposite poles, forming a 2-nucleate embryo sac. ... In these mitotic divisions, a nuclear division is not followed by cell division.
