The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "An ovule with well-developed nucellus is called as," we will analyze the options provided and understand the definitions of each term related to ovule classification. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Nucellus**: - The nucellus is the central part of the ovule, which contains the megasporangium. It is crucial for the development of the female gametophyte. 2. **Classifying Ovules**: - Ovules can be classified based on the number of cell layers present between the epidermis and the megasporophyte (the tissue that produces the megaspores). 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Crassi-nucelate**: This type of ovule has two or more cell layers between the epidermis and the megasporophyte. This indicates a well-developed nucellus. - **Tenu-nucelate**: This type of ovule has only one cell layer between the epidermis and the megasporophyte, indicating a less developed nucellus. - **Pseudo-nucelate**: This term suggests a false nucellus. It implies that there is an absence of a proper cell layer, which does not correspond to a well-developed structure. - **Er-nucelate**: This term is not commonly recognized in the context of ovule classification. 4. **Conclusion**: - Based on the definitions, the only option that indicates a well-developed nucellus is **Crassi-nucelate**. Therefore, the answer to the question is **Crassi-nucelate**. ### Final Answer: An ovule with well-developed nucellus is called **Crassi-nucelate**.
