The correct Answer is:
To answer the question, "Fusion of male gamete with diploid secondary nucleus produces _________ and it is known as ________ (respectively)," we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Components**: - The male gamete in flowering plants (angiosperms) is the pollen grain, which contains sperm cells. - The diploid secondary nucleus is formed from the fusion of two polar nuclei within the embryo sac. 2. **Identifying the Process**: - In angiosperms, the process involves the fusion of the male gamete (sperm) with the diploid secondary nucleus (formed by the fusion of two polar nuclei). - This fusion results in the formation of a triploid cell. 3. **Result of the Fusion**: - The fusion of the male gamete with the diploid secondary nucleus produces the primary endosperm nucleus (PEN). - The ploidy of this primary endosperm nucleus is triploid (3N). 4. **Naming the Process**: - The process of fusion between the male gamete and the diploid secondary nucleus is known as "triple fusion." 5. **Final Answer**: - Therefore, the answer to the question is: - Fusion of male gamete with diploid secondary nucleus produces **primary endosperm nucleus (PEN)** and it is known as **triple fusion**. ### Final Answer: - **Primary endosperm nucleus (PEN)** and **triple fusion**.
