The fusion of a male gamete with secondary nucleus is called double fertilization and it results in the development of endosperm which nourishes the developing embryo inside the seed. Thus without double fertilization nourishment of developing embryo will be hamphered.

The steps in the diploid life cycle are meiosis, to gametes, to fertilization, to diploid, to reproductive cell. The main steps are Meiosis and Fertilization.

procreation, dispersing the seeds


What role does a fruite play in an angiosperms life cycle?

The life cycle of angiosperms begin with pollination and end in the formation of fruits which contains seeds that germinate into new plants which mature till they reach the flowering stage, thereby, completing a full circle.


How long do different angiosperms live?

Angiosperms are classified as annuals, biennials, or perennials based on the length of their life cycles. Flowering plants that complete a life cycle within one growing season are called annuals. Angiosperms that complete their life cycle in two years are called biennials. Flowering plants that live for more than two years are called perennials.

In a fern's life cycle when does fertilization occur?

Fertilization in a fern's life cycle occurs when sperm from the male gametophyte fertilizes an egg in the female gametophyte, usually happening after the sperm swims to the egg in a film of water.

What are the main steps in the diploid life cycle.?

The main steps in the diploid life cycle are: meiosis, to gametes, to fertilization, to zygote, to diploid individuals, to a reproductive cellIf you are mainly concentrating on the steps I guess you could say Meiosis and Fertilization.


How do angiosperms develop?

Life cycle of an angiosperm: 1. Sporophyte (2n) creates spores 2. spores (1n) create gametophytes (1n) (male-pollen grain, female-ovule) 3. the gametophytes create gametes within the pollen grain and ovule 4. pollination occurs: pollen lands on the stigma 5. after pollination occurs, the seeds grow up to sporophytes (2n) and restart the life cycle 1 in every 8 times fertilization occurs, double fertilization occurs.


Does sexual life cycles differ with respect to the relative timing of meiosis and fertilization?

Yes, sexual life cycles can differ based on the relative timing of meiosis and fertilization. In some organisms, such as animals, meiosis and fertilization occur separately and alternately, resulting in a diploid-dominant life cycle. In contrast, in some algae and fungi, meiosis and fertilization can occur in close succession, leading to a haploid-dominant life cycle.
