The correct answer is (3) 3+2+3.
Nucleus of functional megaspore divides by three mitotic divisions to form 8 nuclei, out of which
(i) Three of them get organised as cells at micropylar end forming egg apparatus. One is egg cell (n) and two are synergids (n) or co-operative cells.

(ii) Two nuclei (one from each pole) in the centre are called polar nuclei (n)

(iii) Three cells at chalazal end form antipodals (n) or vegetative cells of female gametophyte
