Question

Zygote of S p i r o g y r a produces four haploid nuclei in which

  1. One is functional  
  2. Two are functional  
  3. Three are functional  
  4. All are functional  

The correct answer is: One is functional


    The united protoplasmic mass of two gametes is called zygospore (zygote). Prior to germination, the diploid zygospore nucleus undergoes meiosis and forms four nuclei, three of these abort and only one is functional. It undergoes transverse division to give rise single filament.
