The correct answer is: When pollen is shed at two-celled stage, single fertilization takes place
Many of the Angiosperms release the pollen in two celled stage having vegetative and generative cell. The generative cell later divides in two forming the two male gametes. These gametes will participate in the characteristic double fertilization process giving rise to zygote and primary endosperm nucleus.
