    The plant part which consists of two generations one within the other, is:

    A)  germinated pollen grain

    B)  embryo

    C)  unfertilized ovule

    D)  seed

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Seed develops from an ovule (consisting integument and nucellus) or megasporangium. Parts of ovule develop a haploid megaspore which grow into haploid female gametophyte. This female gametophyte develops an egg or oospore. The latter is fertilized by a male gamete and develop into a zygote\[(2n)\]. The zygote develops into an embryo or new sporophyte. The embryo \[(2n)\] is surrounded by female gemetophyte \[(n)\], the latter by seed coat\[(2n)\]. In this way seed wontains three generations locked one within another. Of these, two generations occur within embryo.
