Solution

The correct option is B Seed coat
After the fertilization, the zygote forms and other parts of the ovule start modifying before the zygote convert into an embryo. The embryo is enclosed by seed coat which is a modification of the inner integument which makes its inner layer called tegmen and an outer layer which is outer integument converted into testa, the micropyle conducts water and the ovary changes into fruit.
