Solution

The correct option is A Synergids
The synergid cell wall forms a highly thickened structure called the filiform apparatus at the micropylar end, consisting of numerous finger-like projections into the synergid cytoplasm. The function of the filiform apparatus is that it helps in leading the pollen tubes in the synergids.
So, the correct answer is option A.
