The pointer is indicating a diploid cell that develops into the ovule.

What is fertilization?

Fertilization is the fusion of male and female gametes, usually sperm and egg, resulting in the formation of a zygote.

The ovule and embryo are directly associated with mitosis. The end result of mitosis is diploid (2n).

Mitosis is the process of cell division, and both the ovule and embryo undergo mitotic divisions during plant reproduction.

But the pointer represents germinated pollen grain tube. The pollen tube grows and penetrates the ovule during the process of fertilization in plants.

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-Carpel

Step-by-step explanation:

The carpel is the basic unit of the female reproductive organs or gynoecium which is present in the flower either in the fused form or free form.

The carpel is the innermost part of the cell which comprises of three structure: style, stigma and ovary. The carpel is surrounded by the male reproductive organ.

The carpel is formed from the floral meristem (diploid structure) through mitotic division therefore carpel is diploid in nature.

Thus, option-Carpel is the correct answer.
