Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
In orthotropous ovule, the ovule is erect or straight so that the micropyle and
chalaza lie in straight line with the funicle. This type of ovules are found in members of Polygonaceae e.g., Polygonum, Rumex, etc. and Piperaceae e.g., Piper nigrum, Piper betel.
chalaza lie in straight line with the funicle. This type of ovules are found in members of Polygonaceae e.g., Polygonum, Rumex, etc. and Piperaceae e.g., Piper nigrum, Piper betel.

Sexual Reproduction in Flowering Plants
Sexual reproduction in flowering plants takes place or happens when the production of a new organism occurs from two parents by making use of their gametes or sex cells. Both sexual and asexual reproduction can be found in plants. Nearly all flowering plants reproduce sexually. Flowers play a captious role in the process as it carries both the male and female reproductive parts commonly known as androecium and gynoecium respectively.
