Top Questions on Double Fertilisation
- Assertion: Insects are important pollinators for many flowering plants. Reasoning: Insects visit flowers to obtain nectar or pollen, and in the process, they inadvertently transfer pollen from one flower to another, facilitating cross-pollination.

- Consider the diameter of a spherical object being measured with the help of a Vernier Callipers. Suppose its 10 Vernier Scale Divisions (V.S.D.) are equal to its 9 Main Scale Divisions (M.S.D.). The least count in the M.S. is 0.1 cm and the zero of V.S. is at -0.1 cm when the jaws of Vernier callipers are closed. If the main scale reading for the diameter is \(M = 5\) cm and the number of coinciding vernier division is 8, the measured diameter after zero error correction, is:

Concepts Used:
Pollination and Double Fertilization
Pollination is defined as the pre-fertilization event or process, where pollen grains from another are transferred to the stigma of a flower.
Double fertilization is a complex process that involves the fusion of one female gametophyte with two male gametes.
Types of Pollination:
All plants having flowers completely rely on the pollination method for reproduction. There are 2 types of pollination –
- Self Pollination
- Cross-Pollination
The end products of double fertilization are:
- Diploid Zygote
- Primary Endosperm Nucleus
