Antipodal cells are three haploid cells present in the mature embryo sac of flowering plants. These are present at the opposite end of the micropyle. The number of antipodals in Gramineae varies from 3 to hundreds. For example, there are 4 antipodal cells in Pennisetum americanum and 300 uninucleate antipodal cells in Sasa paniculata. 

So, the correct answer is '300'.Hence, the correct answer is option 4.
