Solution
The correct option is C Telolecithal Among animals which produce one, the yolk is the nutrient-bearing portion of the egg whose primary function is to supply food for the development of the embryo. In eggs containing a moderate or large quantity of yolk, the distribution of yolk is not uniform. It is concentrated more towards the vegetal pole. Such a type of egg, in which the yolk is concentrated towards one pole, is called telolecithal egg. Telolecithal eggs are classified into three types: slightly telolecithal, moderately telolecithal and extremely telolecithal.
