Read the following and answer any four questions from $(i)$ to $(v)$ given below:
The endosperm makes the main source of food for the embryo. Generally the endosperm nucleus divides after the division of the oospore, but in several cases the endosperm is formed to a great extent even before the first division of the oospore. There are three general types of endosperm formation: $(a)$ nuclear type, $(b)$ cellular type and $(c)$ helobial type. The endosperm is usually triploid, but haploid endosperm is also found. Endosperm may either be completely consumed by the developing embryo before seed maturation, or it may persist in the mature seed.
  1. Haploid endosperm is found in :
  1. Pin us.
  2. Cauliflower.
  3. Sunflower.
  4. Pea.

The anther is a four$-$sided structure consisting of four microsporangia located at the corners, two in each lobe. $TI1e$ microsporangia develop further and become pollen sacs. In a transverse section, a typical microsporangium appears near circular in outline. It is generally surrounded by four wall layers$-$the epidermis, endothecium, middle layers and the tapetum.
