Solution

The correct option is C Inverted
In anatropous ovule, the body of the ovule gets rotated by 180o. The funicle lies parallel to the body of the ovule and micropyle. It is an inverted ovule where the micropyle lies close to the hilum or at the side of hilum. The chalazal end is present at the top. The ovule becomes seven-celled stage after fusion of two polar nuclei in the centre.
So, the correct answer is option D.
