Question

• A. A II iii, B I ii, C III i
• B. A II ii, B I iii, C III i
• C. A III i, B II iii, C III ii
• D. A I ii, B III i, C II iii

Hint:

In ovule types, the position of the ovule relative to the funiculus is crucial for plant reproductive biology. The types are based on how the ovule is attached and oriented.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

- Orthotropous: The ovule is straight and attached directly to the funiculus, as in the case of Polygonum, which corresponds to "A III i."
- Campylotropous: The ovule is turned 180° to the funiculus, which corresponds to Sunflower, and thus "B II iii."
- Anatropous: The ovule is inverted, and the funiculus is attached to the concave side, as in Bean, corresponding to "C III ii."
Thus, the correct sequence is "A III i, B II iii, C III ii."
