Formation of Female
Gamete
Embryo Sac Development
Cells of Carpel Sac are 2n
• Cell in Ovule divide by Meiosis
and it becomes the embryo sac
or Megaspore
Meiosis
• 4 Haploid Cells are made
• 3 die and 1 survive
Cell Division
• Mitosis
• Mitosis
• Mitosis
8 Nuclei
• The Embryo Sac swells and now
contains 8 nuclei
• This is also called the Megaspore
Nuclei in Embryo Sac
2 Polar Nuclei
• Polar Nuclei and Egg Cell survive
Egg Cell
• Other Nuclei die
Double Fertilisation
No water needed
Adaptation to life
on land
• 1 male gamete from the pollen
grain fuses with the egg nucleus
to form the embryo plant
• Polar Nuclei join with the 2nd Cell
form pollen grain to form
Endosperm
Fertilised Ovule = Seed
Integument = Testa
