Solution
The correct option is
A
Epistase
A few cells of the nucellar epidermis between embryo sac and micropyle become specialized to form epistase.
They are thick cutinized cells and often form a cap between megasporocyte and megagametophyte.
These cells persist for a longer period of time and their function is not clearly understood.
The group of specialized thickened nucellar cells between embryo sac and chalaza is hypostase. They provide nourishment to the growing embryo.
Thus, the correct answer is '
Epistase
'
