The correct answer is: the marginal placentation
The arrangement of ovules within the ovary is known as placentation. The placentation is of different types namely, marginal, axile, parietal, basal, central, and free central. In marginal placentation, the placenta forms a ridge along the ventral suture of the ovary and the ovules are borne on this ridge forming two rows.
