What is apomixis? And it's type

Answer 1

Explanation:

Apomixis is an asexual reproduction that occurs without fertilization and not involving meiosis. One example of apomixis is the apomictic parthenogenesis. It its one in which the egg cell is produced through mitosis. It then develops directly into an embryo without the prior fertilization

Three types of apomixis are generally recognized – diplospory, apospory and adventitious embryony. These apomictic processes are depicted compared to sexual processes in the formation of a common Polygonum-type embryo sac.

Answer 2

Answer:

• Apomixis is a type of reproduction in which sexual organs of related structures take part but seeds are formed without union of gametes. Seeds formed in this way are vegetative in origin. ... On the other hand, if gametic and apomictic reproduction occurs in the same plant, it is known as facultative apomixis.
