The correct Answer is:
To answer the question about the haploid, diploid, and triploid structures in a fertilized embryo sac, we can break down the information as follows: ### Step-by-Step Solution 1. **Identify the Structures in the Embryo Sac**: - The embryo sac contains several cell types, including synergids, antipodals, polar nuclei, and the zygote. 2. **Determine the Ploidy Levels**: - **Haploid (n)**: This refers to cells that have one set of chromosomes. In the embryo sac, the following structures are haploid: - **Synergids**: These are the two cells located at the micropylar end of the embryo sac. - **Antipodal Cells**: These are the three cells located at the chalazal end of the embryo sac. - **Diploid (2n)**: This refers to cells that have two sets of chromosomes. In the embryo sac: - **Zygote**: This is formed after fertilization when the male gamete (n) fuses with the female gamete (n), resulting in a diploid zygote (2n). - **Triploid (3n)**: This refers to cells that have three sets of chromosomes. In the embryo sac: - **Primary Endosperm Nucleus**: This is formed by the fusion of one male gamete (n) with the central cell (which contains two polar nuclei, making it 2n), resulting in a triploid structure (3n). 3. **Summarize the Findings**: - **Haploid Structures**: Synergids (n) and Antipodals (n). - **Diploid Structure**: Zygote (2n). - **Triploid Structure**: Primary Endosperm Nucleus (3n). 4. **Match the Structures with the Given Options**: - The correct answer includes the haploid, diploid, and triploid structures identified above. ### Final Answer In a fertilized embryo sac: - **Haploid Structures**: Synergids and Antipodals (n) - **Diploid Structure**: Zygote (2n) - **Triploid Structure**: Primary Endosperm Nucleus (3n) Thus, the correct answer is: **Synergids (n), Zygote (2n), and Primary Endosperm Nucleus (3n)**.
