The correct option is B Anatropous
Anatropous or orthotropous ovule means ortho means straight. Anatropous means turn are the ovules that do not turn and the body is erect or straight. In this type of micropyle, chalaza and funiculus lie in one vertical plane in the ovule.
So the correct option is 'Anatropous'.
