<P> The ovules are 8 in number and arranged in the form of 3 + 2 + 3 ( from top to bottom ) i.e 2 synergids & 1 egg cell , 2 polar central cells , 3 antipodal cells . One sperm fertilizes the egg cell and the other sperm combines with the two polar nuclei of the large central cell of the megagametophyte . The haploid sperm and haploid egg combine to form a diploid zygote , the process being called syngamy , while the other sperm and the two haploid polar nuclei of the large central cell of the megagametophyte form a triploid nucleus ( triple fusion ) . Some plants may form polyploid nuclei . The large cell of the gametophyte will then develop into the endosperm , a nutrient - rich tissue which provides nourishment to the developing embryo . The ovary , surrounding the ovules , develops into the fruit , which protects the seeds and may function to disperse them . </P>
