Answer:

The correct option is B which is micropyle.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Generally micropyle is known as the opening in the ovule or egg from which sperm enters the egg.
  • But at the time of germination it is used to absorb water and nutrients.
  • It is the micropyle from which the root emerges from the seed.
