Liquid endosperm in coconut water is multinucleate because
Athe cells fused together post-mitosis
Beach chromosome formed its own nucleus during anaphase
CDNA replication failed during S phase
Dkaryokinesis happened without cytokinesis
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. karyokinesis happened without cytokinesis
When mitotic divisions of the nucleus run without the cytoplasm being split, you get one large cell with many nuclei.
The liquid endosperm of coconut is the textbook syllabus example.
