The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks about the nature of embryo development in angiosperms. We need to identify the correct method of development. 2. **Zygote Formation**: In angiosperms, the embryo develops from the zygote, which is formed after fertilization. However, it's important to note that not the entire zygote is involved in the formation of the embryo. 3. **Type of Development**: The development of the embryo in angiosperms is characterized as "meroblastic development." This means that only a portion of the zygote contributes to the formation of the embryo, while the rest may not participate in the embryonic development. 4. **Conclusion**: Based on the explanation, we conclude that the correct answer to the question regarding the development of the embryo in angiosperms is that it is meroblastic. 5. **Final Answer**: The correct answer is option 2: Meroblastic development.
