b) The megaspore increases in size and its nucleus divides mitotically into two nuclei which moves to opposite poles.
c) The two nuclei undergoes mitotic division giving rise to 4 nucleate stage
d) The third mitotic division takes place and 8-nucleate embryo sac is formed
e) Two nuclei remain in centre to form polar nuclei
f) Three remaining in micropylar region for the egg and two synergids
