Solution

The correct option is A Distal centriole
Proximal and distal centriole that lie at a right angle to each other in the sperms. The distal centriole give rise to the axial filament and the proximal do not have any active role but it is active during first cleavage division of fertilised egg.
So the correct option is A.
