Solution

The correct option is D ovum and placenta
Fertilized egg gets it nourishment first from its own reserve food material stored in the egg. Once the egg implants on the wall of the uterus, it leads to the formation of the placenta. The placenta, through an umbilical cord, nourishes the fetus in later stages.
