Solution

The correct option is C Archegonium
In bryophytes, embryo/sporophyte develops inside archegonium which contains the female egg. The male sperm reaches the egg via water and fertilization occurs here. The embryo or sporophyte grows here itself and is dependent on the gametophyte.
Hence the correct option is C.
