Question:
why do you think that zygote is dormant for sometime in a fertilized ovule
Answer:
Hi there!
Zygote formation is not instantly followed by cleavage. It remains dormant for sometime to ensure that the development of endosperm takes place before it starts dividing. Endosperm formation always precedes embryo development. The reason is, endosperm is a nutritive tissue which provides nourishment to the growing embryo.
