Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
In Funaria, the antheridia are not sunk in pits, but project from the surface of the receptacle and are aggregated to form a cluster.
The leaves surrounding the antheridial cluster are known as the perigonal leaves.
The antheridial cluster with the surrounding perigonal leaves is called the perigonium.
