Antipodals are nutritive in function and they nourishes the embryo sac. Substances developed by the antipodal cells are helping in growth and development of endosperm. Generally, synergid cellas are located in female gametophyte and these are essential for angiosperm reproduction.
The antipodal cells of the female gametophyte sometimes acquire glandular properties, as may cells of the nucellus surrounding the embryo sac. In some species the embryo itself develops a suspensor that penetrates the tissues of the parent sporophyte and acts as an absorbing organ
