Detailed Solution
The most common type of female gametophyte (embryo sac) in angiosperms is the monosporic embryo sac in which the embryo sac develops from a single functional megaspore (n), while the other three megaspores degenerate. The functional megaspore undergoes three sequential mitotic divisions and gives rise to the 8-nucleate and 7-celled mature embryo sac.
