The megaspore mother cell of an angiosperm has a diploid chromosome number of 2n=32. This megaspore mother cell undergoes meiosis to form 4 megaspores where only 1 survives while the other 3 died. the surviving megaspore undergoes mitosis 3 times to create 8 cells in the embryo sac. 1 egg cell. How many chromosomes are in an egg cell at G1?
