Solution
The correct option is C Venter
In the case of bryophytes, the sperms are produced within tiny, typically stalked, club-shaped structures called antheridia and you can also see bryophyte sperm referred to as antherozoids. The stalk anchors the antheridium to the gametophyte. Each antheridium produces numerous sperm. The eggs are produced in tiny, typically somewhat flask - like structures called archegonia. Each archegonium holds one egg (in a swollen section called the venter) and the sperm enter through the channel in the narrower, tubular section (or neck). On the side of the venter opposite of the neck is the foot which anchors the archegonium to the gametophyte. Hence the correct option is C.
