Q. Which one of the following represents an ovule, where the embryo sac becomes horse-shoe shaped and the funiculus and micropyle are close to each other ?

A) Circinotropous
B) Anatropous
C) Amphitropous
D) Atropous
Explanation

[Solution from source] In an amphitropous ovule, both the body of the ovule and the embryo sac are curved into a horseshoe shape, which brings the micropyle close to the funiculus. An anatropous ovule is inverted but its embryo sac stays straight, and an atropous ovule is upright. Answer (3).
