The correct Answer is:
To answer the question regarding the type of ovule in which the hilum, chalaza, and micropyle come to lie nearby, we can analyze the options provided and summarize the characteristics of each type of ovule. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Terms**: - **Hilum**: The point of attachment of the ovule to the ovary wall. - **Chalaza**: The part of the ovule opposite the micropyle, where the integuments are attached. - **Micropyle**: The opening in the ovule through which the pollen tube enters. 2. **Types of Ovules**: - **Campylotropous Ovule**: - In this type, the ovule is curved, and the micropyle is located near the funiculus. - The chalaza and micropyle lie in a straight line, and the hilum is at a right angle (90 degrees) to the micropyle. - **Amphitropous Ovule**: - This ovule also has a curved body that resembles a horseshoe shape. - The chalaza and micropyle are aligned, and the hilum is positioned such that it is nearby to both the chalaza and micropyle. - **Hemitropous Ovule**: - Here, the ovule is turned 90 degrees, with the micropyle and chalaza lying in a straight line. - The funiculus is at a right angle to both the micropyle and chalaza. 3. **Conclusion**: - Both the **Campylotropous** and **Amphitropous** ovules have the characteristics where the hilum, chalaza, and micropyle are in proximity to each other. - Therefore, the correct answer to the question is that both **Campylotropous** and **Amphitropous** ovules fit the description. ### Final Answer: The types of ovule in which hilum, chalaza, and micropyle come to lie nearby are **Campylotropous and Amphitropous**. ---
