Solution

The correct option is A funicle
Hilum is the region where the body of the ovule fuses with the funicle. Funicle is a stalk by which the ovule is attached to the placenta.
Micropyle is the small opening on the surface of an ovule.
Integuments are the protective envelopes surrounding the ovule. Inside the integuments, there is nucellus. Nucellus contains the reserve food material.
