What is the direction of micropyle in anatropous ovule
- Upward
- Downward
- Right
- Left
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
The correct option is (B) : Downward
The body of the ovule is rotated by 180 degrees in an anatropous ovule.The ovule and micropyle's bodies are parallel to the funicle. The micropyle is located at the side of the hilum or in close proximity to it, making it an inverted ovule. At the top, the chalazal end is visible. Two polar nuclei in the core of the ovule fuse, resulting in the formation of a seven-celled stage.

Sexual Reproduction in Flowering Plants
Sexual reproduction in flowering plants takes place or happens when the production of a new organism occurs from two parents by making use of their gametes or sex cells. Both sexual and asexual reproduction can be found in plants. Nearly all flowering plants reproduce sexually. Flowers play a captious role in the process as it carries both the male and female reproductive parts commonly known as androecium and gynoecium respectively.
An individual flower comprises the following parts -
- Pedicle
- Calyx
- Petals
- Sepals
- Stamen
- Pistil
- Receptacle
