Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

The ovule is located within the ovary and it consists of nucellus and integuments. They attach to the placentae by means of a stalk called funiculus. There is an opening present in the mature ovule that is called the micropyle. A female gametophyte or embryo sac is present inside the nucellus. The two synergid cells are located in the female gametophyte around the egg and form an egg apparatus. There is a filiform apparatus present on the synergid that guides the entry of the pollen tube to the embryo sac.
