Statement A: In angiosperms, the megaspore shows the stages of uninucleate, binucleate, quadrinucleate and octanucleate stages during the formation of female gametophyte.
Statement B: The functional megaspore of angiosperms shows three successive generations of free nuclear divisions to form embryo sac.
During the formation of embryo sac, the functional megaspore is initially uninucleate and eventually due to free nuclear divisions shows bi, tetra and octa nucleate condition.
