Endosperm of gymnosperm is haploid(ploidy n), develop from megaspore (n) before fertilization. ploidy of endosperm in angiosperm is 3n(central cell fused with one male gamete i.e 2n+n).
An example of a seed that has liquid endosperm would be a coconut. While it does contain cellular endosperm, the coconut milk would be considered liquid endosperm.

The aleurone layer is the outermost layer of the endosperm. Therefore it is also triploid and same as the ploidy of endosperm.

If the chromosome number of a plant is 16, then the ploidy level of the microspore mother cell would be 2n=16 (diploid) and the endosperm cells would typically be 3n=24 (triploid), as they result from the fusion of a haploid sperm cell and a diploid central cell in double fertilization.
