What is the name of the stalk that links an ovule or seed to the placenta within the ovary?
Explanation
The funiculus is the stalk that attaches the ovule or seed to the placenta inside the ovary. The hilum is the scar on the seed coat where it was attached, the aril is an extra seed covering, and the raphe is a ridge formed by the fusion of the funiculus with the ovule.
