In............... type, the embryosac is formed by the micropylar dyad cell.

AAllium

BEndymion

COenothera

DPolygonum

Answer:

B. Endymion

Read Explanation:

  • The formation of the embryo sac from a single megaspore is termed as monosporic development.

  • In Endymion (also known as Scilla), a genus of flowering plants in the family Asparagaceae, the embryo sac development follows a specific pattern.

  • Typically, in monosporic development, one of the four megaspores formed after meiosis degenerates, and the functional megaspore develops into the embryo sac.

  • In the Endymion type of embryo sac development, it is specifically the micropylar dyad cell that undergoes further development to form the embryo sac.

  • This is a deviation from other common types of monosporic development like the *Polygonum* type, where the chalazal megaspore is usually functional.

  • The development in Endymion involves the functional megaspore undergoing three successive mitotic divisions to form an eight-nucleate embryo sac.
