Where does triple fusion take place in a flowering plant? Why is it so called? Mention its significance.

Answer»
  • Triple fusion takes place in the central cell of the embryo sac of the angiosperm ovule. 
  • It is so called because it involves fusion of three nuclei – two polar nuclei (fuse to form a diploid secondary nucleus) and a male gamete. 
  • The product is a triploid primary endosperm nucleus that later forms the triploid endosperm, the tissue that nourishes the developing embryo
