Answer Key / Explanation : (a) -

(a)

During fertilisation in plants, one male gamete fuses with the egg cell and forms the zygote (this process is called syngamy). The other male gamete fuses with the secondary nucleus (this is called triple fusion). The syngamy and triple fusion together are called double fertilisation
