Answer: The correct answer is (a) gametes, zygote, embryo, seedling

Solution: The process of reproduction is divided into different stages. The first stage is the production of male and female gamete i.e., pollen and ovule respectively. The pollen grain reaches the stigma of flowers by the process of pollination. The pollen germinates and forms a pollen tube that reaches the ovary and then the male gamete is released. The male gamete fuses with the female gamete and results in the formation of a zygote.

The zygote divides several times to form an embryo. Then, there is seed development. A flowering plant's seeds have three parts, the embryo formed from a zygote, the endosperm formed by double fertilization and the seed coat formed by the maternal tissue of the ovule. The seeds under favorable conditions, germinate to produce a seedling. Hence, (a) is the correct option.
