Following statements regarding to the embryogenesis in A. thaliana.

A. The first zygotic division is unequal, with the basal cell larger than the apical cell. The basal cell divides to give rise to the suspensor. The apical cell divides vertically to form a two-celled proembryo, which will give rise to the rest of the embryo.

B. The top most suspensor cell is recruited into the embryo, where it is known as the hypophysis, and contributes to the embryonic root meristem and root cap.

C. The next two divisions produce an eight-cell octant-stage embryo, which develops into a heart-stage embryo of around 32 cells

D. The embryo elongates and the cotyledons start to develop as wing-like structures at one end, while an embryonic root forms at the other. This stage is known as the globular stage.

Choose right statement about cleavage pattern and gastrulation movements;
1.At the end of cleavage the animal embryo is essentially a closed sheet of cells, which is often in the form of a sphere enclosing a fluid-filled interior. Gastrulation, strictly the formation of the gut, converts this sheet into a solid three-dimensional embryonic animal body. 
2.During cleavage, cells move into the interior of the embryo, and the regions of endoderm. and mesoderm. which were originally adjacent in the cell sheet, take up their appropriate positions in the embryo.
3. Gastrulation results from a well- defined spatio-temporal pattern of change in cell shape, cell movement, and change in cell adhesiveness, the main forces of which are generated by localized contractions.
