How the nucleus from a pollen grain fertilize a female egg cell
How the nucleus from a pollen grain fertilize a female egg cell
Pollen grows a tube that travels down to the flowers ovary. From there, the nucleus of the pollen grains passes through the pollen tube to join the nucleus of the ovule to fertilize.
The germinated pollen grain is empty of the male gamete nucleus.
While still attached to the anther, the nucleus of the pollen grain divides, producing two nuclei, one of which becomes the tube nucleus, the other is called the generative nucleus. The generative nucleus divides again, forming two sperm cells. Once the pollen grain is released from the anther, it is transported (by wind or fauna) to the stigma of the female flower. Once a pollen grain has landed on the stigma, it begins to grow a pollen tube (there are three nuclei in the pollen tube, one from the tube nucleus, and the two sperm). When the pollen tube reaches the ovary, both sperm cells enter the ovule, one fuses with the egg nucleus, the other fuses with polar nuclei that is also inside the ovule, forming the endosperm.
The pollen tube nucleus directs the growth of the pollen tube down through the pistil to the ovary
Tube nucleus generates after guiding the pollen tube into the embryo sac

the sperm nucleus is found in pollen grains and directs the growth of the pollen tube to the ovule in the ovary, it then degenerates

There are 50 chromosomes in both male and female pineapple pollen grain.
It contains a tiny egg nucleus which will fuse with nucleus of the male cell.
