Question

how many haploid nuclei are present in a mature female gametophyte of a flowering plant

Answer 1

Answer:

There are usually eight (haploid) cells in the female gametophyte: a) one egg, two synergids flanking the egg (located at the micropyle end of the embryo sac); b) two polar nuclei in the center of the embryo sac; and three antipodal cells (at the opposite end of the embryo sac from the egg).
