ANSWER :-
Four large sized structures are present inside the typical four-lobed megasporangium. Each of those four large sized structures is known as a megaspore.
Extra Information-
- Generally, the megaspore germinates inside the megasporangium ( that is, in situ).
- In some species, the megaspores are shed after the development of the first archaegonium.
- In S. kraussiana, the megaspores are shed after the development of the first archaegonium.
- In S. apoda and S. rupestris, the megaspores are not liberated until a well developed embryo is formed.

What is megaspore?
Megaspores, also called macrospores, are a type of spore that is present in heterosporous plants. These plants have two spore types, megaspores and microspores. Generally speaking, the megaspore, or large spore, germinates into a female gametophyte, which produces egg cells

macrospore the larger of the two types of spore produced by some spore-bearing plants, which develops into the female gametophyteCompare microspore (def. 1) the cell in flowering plants that gives rise to the embryo sac.
