Answer:  One of the two pollen nuclei unites with the egg and the other with the polar nuclei in the double fertilisation process. As a result, there are two forms of fusion: fertilisation and triple fusion. As a result, angiosperm fertilisation is referred to as double fertilisation. The nuclei of both pollen grains are haploid.
