Sporophyte of Funaria begins its development inside

Solution
The correct option is A archegonium
The zygote is the first cell of the sporophytic phase of Funaria. The development of sporophyte occurs within the centre of the archegonium. The sporophyte is semi-parasitic in nature, the mature sporophyte can be differentiated into three distinct parts – foot, seta and capsule. Spore mother cells are produced inside the capsule that undergo meiosis to form haploid spores that develop into gametophyte.
Antheridium is the male reproductive part of the plant.
A branched, filamentous and multicellular structure produced from the spores on germination is called protonema.
