Egg in female gametophyte is accompanied by

  • antipodal cells

  • synergids

  • definitive nucleus

  • tube nucleus


B.

synergids

Synergids are two specialised cells that lie adjacent to the egg cell in the female gametophyte of angiosperms and play an essential role in pollen tube guidance and
function. These are responsible for cessation of pollen tube growth and release of the sperm cells.

Antipodals are nutritive in function and they nourishes the embryo sac. Substances developed by these cells helps in growth and development of endosperm.

Definitive nucleus is the diploid nucleus found in the centre of the embryo.

Tube nucleus is the one of the two nuclei formed by mitotic division of a microspore during the formation of a pollen grain.
