If one set of chromosomes for a given plant is represented as N; in case of double fertilization, the zygote and the endosperm nucleus of a diploid plant would have how many sets of chromosomes respectively?

N and 2N

2N and 2N

N and 3N

2N and 3N

Explanation:

One gamete fertilizes with the egg and forms a diploid (2n) zygote. This is the first fertilization. The other gamete combines with diploid (2n) secondary nucleus (2n) to form triploid (3n) endosperm. ... After fertilization, the zygote divides and develops into an embryo or developing the plant
