Question

Embryo sacs of some apomictic species appear normal but contain diploid cells. Suggest a suitable explanation for the condition.

Class 12th. ​

Answer 1

⭕ HERE'S YOUR ANSWER ⤵⤵⤵⤵

✔ BECAUSE it occurs in the megaspore cell and does not undergo meiosis ,thus produce diploid embryo sac, thus miotic division

⚫THUS IT EXPLAINS THAT, embryo sac of some apomictic species appears normal but contain diploid cell❗❗

HOPE IT MAY HELPS UH ❤✌

Answer 2

Explanation:

Apomixis is a special mode of reproduction where seeds are formed without the fusion of gamets (fertilisation).

It occurs in some flowering plantd in which the diploid cell of the ovule,either from nucellus or megaspore develops into an embryo.

The rest of the ovule develops into a diploid seed and the ovule into a fruit.

The seed produced is genetically identical to the mother plant.

The organism that reproduces by apomixis is called an apomict.

Thus the embryo sacs of some apomictic species appear normal but contain diploid cells.
