MCQ

उत्तर

6

Explanation:

In Haplopappus gracilis, if the number of chromosomes in the cells of the nucellus is 4 (diploid, 2n = 4), then:

  • The haploid (n) chromosome number would be 2.
  • The Primary endosperm cell is formed as a result of the fusion of one male gamete (n) with two polar nuclei (n + n) in the process of double fertilization, making it triploid (3n).

Calculation: 3n = 3 × 2 = 6 chromosomes

Therefore, the chromosome number in the Primary endosperm cell will be 6.
