The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of selecting the correct statement from the provided options, we will analyze each statement one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze the First Statement:** - The first statement claims that the hanging drop method is used for in vivo germination of pollen grains. - **Explanation:** The hanging drop method is a laboratory technique used to observe the germination of pollen grains in a controlled environment, which is not a natural (in vivo) setting. Therefore, this statement is incorrect. 2. **Analyze the Second Statement:** - The second statement states that the obturator directs the growth of the pollen tube towards the micropyle of seeds. - **Explanation:** The obturator does guide the growth of the pollen tube, but it directs it towards the micropyle of the ovule (not the seed). Hence, this statement is also incorrect. 3. **Analyze the Third Statement:** - The third statement mentions that there are many embryos of different sizes and shapes in the seeds of orange. - **Explanation:** In citrus fruits like oranges, it is indeed true that there can be multiple embryos of varying sizes and shapes within the seeds. This statement is correct. 4. **Analyze the Fourth Statement:** - The fourth statement says that the embryo arises pathogenetically from the diploid egg in adventive embryony. - **Explanation:** In adventive embryony, embryos can form from cells other than the zygote, and this process does not involve the diploid egg directly. Therefore, this statement is incorrect. ### Conclusion: - After analyzing all statements, the correct statement is: **"There are many embryos of different sizes and shapes in the seeds of orange."**
