As in angiosperm one sperm fuses and fertilize the egg to form diploid zygote and other fuses to form the triploid cell when it fuses with two polar nuclie
this process is called double fertilization
so the correct option for above is
Double fertilization produces a diploid zygote and triploid endosperm
so option B is correct
hope it helps
