Solution

The correct option is D Hypophysis
The formation of the root apex involves derivatives of both the basal and apical cells of the two-cell embryo, the hypophyseal region derived from the topmost cell of the suspensor is incorporated into the embryo proper, giving rise to part of the root cap.
So, the correct option is 'Hypophysis'.
