Answer:
8n
Explanation:
Female = '6n' no. of chromosomes
Male = '4n' no. of chromosomes
Female gamete or ploidy of egg = 3n
Male gamete or ploidy of sperm = 2n
During zygote formation, male and female gametes fusion takes place,
2n + 3n = 5n
For endosperm formation,
2 polar nuclei + 1 male gamete = 6n + 2n = 8n.
So, the correct option is '8n'.
