Solution

The correct option is A Testa
  • After the fertilization process, the different cells in the embryo sac develop to form different parts of the embryo. For instance, the outer integument forms testa, the inner integument forms tegmen, and the ovary wall forms pericarp (fruit covering).
  • Perisperm is the remnant of nucellus which is persistent in black pepper and beet.
So, the correct answer is option A.
