Solution
The correct option is C Antipodal cells - Micropyle
The ovary produces the egg cell in both plants and animals. In angiosperms the egg cell and the polar nuclei of the embryo sac undergo double fertilization with two male gametes to form the zygote and the triploid endosperm tissue respectively. The antipodal cells are present at the chalazal end of the embryo sac. The integument/s unitegmic or bitegmic forms the protective covering around the ovule.
So, the correct answer is ‘Antipodal cells - Micropyle’
