Fertilization in plants is achieved by union of male gamete with an egg nucleus. The first step in fertilization is formation of male and female gametes, Second step is transfer of male gametes containing pollen to stigma of female reproductive organ by pollination. The third step is germination of pollen grain for movement of male gamete to the vicinity of female gamete. The fourth step is the union of the nucleus of male gamete with egg nucleus in the embryo sac. The fourth step of fertilization in angiosperms is the act of double fertilization. During this process one of the two gametes released by a pollen tube fuses with secondary nucleus. The secondary nucleus is formed by fusion of two nuclei of embryo sac. Thus double fertilization is also called triple fusion.
What else can I help you with?
In flowering plants what does the carpel produce?
The carpel in flowering plants produces the female reproductive cells (ovules) and matures into the fruit after fertilization.
How is fertilization in flowering plants different from fertilization in other plant groups?
Fertilization in flowering plants is achieved by transferring the male gamete through pollen tube whereas in nonflowering plants the male male gametes are motile and transferred in aqueous medium.
When does fertilization happen in plants?
When male and female gametes unite to form the zygote, it is called fertilization. In flowering plants it is followed by pollination and pollen germination.
What are flowering sperms?
There is no such thing as "flowering sperms." Sperm are male sex cells that are involved in the process of fertilization in flowering plants. Flowering plants reproduce through the union of male and female sex cells contained within their flowers.
What group of plants practices double fertilization?
Angiosperms, or flowering plants, are the group of plants that practice double fertilization. In this process, one sperm fertilizes the egg to form the embryo, while the other sperm fuses with the central cell to form the endosperm, which provides nutrients to the developing embryo.
Which group of plants practices double fertilization?
flowering plants
What substance is transferred to cause fertilization in flowering plants?
pollen

What are flowering plants called?
Flowering plants are called angiosperms. They reproduce by forming flowers that contain reproductive structures necessary for fertilization, such as pollen and ovules. Angiosperms are the most diverse group of plants and include all flowering plants.
