Solve this:
Q. Coconut water from a tender coconut is
( A) degenerated nucellus
(B) immature embryo
(C) free nuclear endosperm
(D) innermost layer of the seed coat

Dear student,
The correct answer is (c).The coconut water from the tender coconut is free nuclear endosperm which is made up of thousands of nuclei.It is because of the division of the primary endosperm nucleus which is further not followed by the formation of the cell wall. Hence, the nuclei remain in liquid form and form liquid part of the coconut.
