Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
In angiosperms, the pollen tube must enter the ovule to deliver the male gametes to the embryo sac. The most common and typical pathway is through the micropyle (the small opening at the tip of the integuments), which is called porogamy. In some plants (like Casuarina, Juglans), the pollen tube enters through the chalaza (the base of the nucellus), which is called chalazogamy. Entry through the integuments is called mesogamy. Apogamy is the formation of a sporophyte without fertilization.
