Answer: 4. Free nuclear endosperm

Key idea: Coconut water is a liquid free nuclear endosperm.

In coconut, the triploid primary endosperm nucleus divides many times without forming cell walls, so many free nuclei float in a watery fluid. Later, cell walls form and produce the white kernel (coconut meat). The endocarp is the hard shell and the mesocarp is the fibrous husk, so neither is the water.
