The central cell of the female gametophytes in angiosperms:
1. results in the formation of a diploid cell after double fertilisation.
2. has three haploid nuclei
3. after triple fusion becomes the primary endosperm cell (PEC) and develops into the endosperm.
4. after syngamy develops into an embryo
