The correct option is C Absent
Neck canal cells

The archegonia are the female reproductive organs that are borne on the female gametophyte of some gymnosperms and are responsible for the production of female gametes or egg cells.

Eachg archegonium has a neck which is flask shaped and a swollen base containing a single egg.

Neck canal cells are never formed in gymnosperms such as Cycas and Pinus. Thus,neck canal cells are absent.
