    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    In Capsella, meiosis takes place during  development of ovule. In this, the first division of the zygote is transverse and a basal, terminal cell is formed. Basal cell further divides by a number of transverse divisions and form 6-10 celled suspensor. The terminal cell first divides by a longitudinal division to form a globular embryo, which latter becomes heart shaped. It is mostly primitive in Cruciferae.
