Correct Answer - A
In angiosperms (dicots), the Polygonum type of embryo sac is most common. In this embryo sac, the arrangement of the nuclei is 3 + 2 + 3, i.e. 3 in antipodal cells, 2 as polar nuclei (which later fuse and form a diploid secondary nucleus) and 3 in egg apparatus (2 in synergids and 1 in egg cell).
