Answer: Endosperm

Step-by-step explanation:

The endosperm is the tissue where food is stored, it surrounds the developing seed of flowering plants and provides nourishment to it.

The endosperm develops from the male gamete that fuses with another cell named the polar nuclei, and is usually triploid (with three sets of chromosomes)
