Gametogenesis
Gametes transfer
Growth of pollen tube
Syngamy
Embryogenesis
Gametogenesis
Gametes transfer
Growth of pollen tube
Syngamy
Embryogenesis
- Ac, d & e
- Correct answerBa, b & c
- Cb, c & d
- Da, b & d
Solution
Syngamy or fertilisation is the fusion of male gamete with female gamete which results in the formation of zygote. This zygote undergoes mitosis, and this results in the formation of embryo by a process called embryogenesis. Thus, syngamy and embryogenesis are post-fertilization events.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
