Answer 1

The correct option is A A-II, B-III, C-V, D-IV, E-I

The ovule is attached to the placenta by a stalk called funicle.
The body of the ovule fuses with funicle in the region called hilum.
Each ovule has one or two protective layers called integuments.
Integuments are absent at the tip of the ovule to form a small opening called the micropyle.
The basal part of the ovule is called the chalaza. It is present at the opposite side of the micropylar pole of the anatropous ovule.
