  • Pollen Tube: Structure Transporting Sperm Nuclei in Flowering Plants
    The structure grown by a pollen grain that contains two sperm nuclei is called a pollen tube.

    Here's why:

    * Pollen grain: The male gametophyte in flowering plants.

    * Pollen tube: A tube-like structure that grows from the pollen grain after pollination. It acts as a conduit, delivering the two sperm nuclei to the ovule.

    * Sperm nuclei: The male gametes within the pollen tube. One sperm nucleus fertilizes the egg cell to form the zygote, while the other fuses with the polar nuclei to form the endosperm.
