The correct Answer is:
To answer the question "In 82% of angiosperm families, ovule is:", we need to analyze the types of ovules present in angiosperms and identify which type is most common. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand the Types of Ovules There are several types of ovules in flowering plants (angiosperms), including: - **Anatropous**: The ovule is inverted, with the micropyle bending down towards the funiculus. - **Orthotropous**: The ovule is straight, with the micropyle at the opposite end from the funiculus. - **Amphitropous**: The ovule is curved, and the micropyle is positioned at an angle to the funiculus. - **Circinotropous**: The funiculus encircles the ovule, creating a circular arrangement. ### Step 2: Identify the Most Common Type According to the information provided, it is stated that in 82% of angiosperm families, the ovule is of the **anatropous** type. This means that the majority of angiosperms exhibit this specific ovule structure. ### Step 3: Conclusion Based on the analysis, the correct answer to the question is: **Anatropous** ovule. ### Final Answer In 82% of angiosperm families, the ovule is **anatropous**. ---
