Answer 1

The correct option is A Gametophyte from sporophyte

Apospory is defined as the development of the gametophyte from the sporophyte without the formation of spores. The spore mother cell does not undergo meiosis. It is otherwise defined as the development of an embryo of a flowering plant outside the embryo sac, from a cell of the nucellus or chalaza.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.
