Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
If diploid no. of an angiospermic plant is 24 the no. of chromosomes in the pollen grain is 12 because it is haploid. Endosperms (3n triple fusion, primary endosperm nucleus) provide the nourishment to the developing embryo. Integument is diploid in nature so they have 24 chromosomes.
