The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Angiospermic Ovules**: - Angiospermic ovules are the reproductive structures found in flowering plants (angiosperms). They develop into seeds after fertilization. 2. **Identifying the Structure of an Ovule**: - A typical angiospermic ovule consists of several key components: - **Integuments**: Protective layers surrounding the ovule. - **Funicle**: The stalk that attaches the ovule to the ovary wall. - **Chalaza**: The end of the ovule opposite the micropyle. - **Micropyle**: The opening through which pollen enters. - **Embryo sac**: Contains the egg cell, synergids, and polar nuclei. 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option A**: "Body is curved like horseshoe" - This is incorrect as the shape of the ovule does not resemble a horseshoe. - **Option B**: "Body rotates by 180 degrees" - This is correct; the ovule undergoes a 180-degree rotation during development. - **Option C**: "Both body and embryo sac are curved" - This is incorrect; while the body may curve, the embryo sac does not. - **Option D**: "Funicle is long and coiled around the body" - This is incorrect as this feature is specific to certain types of ovules (e.g., sarcenotropous). 4. **Conclusion**: - After evaluating all the options, the correct answer is **Option B**: "Body rotates by 180 degrees".
