Solution
The correct option is C Anatropous
Hemitropous ovule
Hemitropous ovule or hemi-anatropous ovule has the micropyle and chalaza lying in a transverse line. The ovule lies transversely at 90 degrees to the funicle which is attached to the ovule somewhere midway.
Orthotropous ovule
The orthotropous ovule lies straight in the ovary and has a straight funicle which is in the same line with the micropyle and chalaza.
Anatropous ovule
Anatropous ovule is inverted and the micropyle lies close to the hilum, facing the placenta. The micropyle and chalaza lie in a vertical line.
Campylotropous ovule
The body of a campylotropous ovule is curved such that the micropyle and funicle lie at the same pole near each other.
Final answer
