In double fertilization, one sperm reaches the egg and fertilizes it. This produces a diploid zygote that will grow into the plant embryo. A second sperm fuses with the endosperm nuclei in the embryo sac and produces the triploid endosperm. This will nourish the developing seedling.

Do ferns undergo double fertilization?

No, ferns do not undergo double fertilization. Double fertilization is a process characteristic of flowering plants (angiosperms), where one sperm fertilizes the egg and the other fuses with two polar nuclei to form the triploid endosperm. In ferns, fertilization involves the fusion of a single sperm with an egg, leading to the formation of a zygote, but does not involve the additional fertilization event seen in angiosperms.
