What is deference between oogamy and isogamy?

Isogamy: It is the fusion of similar size gametes. ie if male gamete and female gamete which are in same size fuse, then the type of fertilization is called isogamy. And also the male and female gametes look alike .Oogamy: It is the fusion of unequal size gametes. ie., the male gamete is smaller than female gamete. The human sperm is smaller then female egg and the fusion of these two is called Oogamy.

What is triple fusion.Describe the process of fertilization in an angiosperm plant?

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 fertilization.
