Summary

Description
English: In the ovule of angiosperms there is developed what appears to be a large cavity, but is really a single large spore which is not discharged. This spore germinates and develops within itself a very simple gametophyte consisting of seven cells. This spore containing its gametophyte, before it was known to be a spore, was called the embryo-sac, because the embryo was observed to develop within it.
