Answer: 2. reduction division occurs in the megaspore mother cells

In most angiosperms the megaspore mother cell (2n) divides by meiosis (reduction division) to form four megaspores, one of which develops into the embryo sac.

There are three antipodal cells, not numerous.
The central cell is large, not small.
The filiform apparatus is in the synergids, not the egg.
