### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Structure**: The mature embryo sac is the female gametophyte of flowering plants, typically consisting of eight nuclei and seven cells. It develops from a single functional megaspore through a process called monosporic development. 2. **Drawing the Outline**: Start by drawing an elongated oval shape to represent the embryo sac. Label the two ends as the "Micropilar End" (top) and "Chalazal End" (bottom). 3. **Indicating Nuclei**: Inside the oval, draw eight small circles to represent the eight nuclei. Arrange them as follows: - At the Micropilar End: 1 egg cell nucleus and 2 synergid nuclei. ...
