a). 

b) i) Synergids- The synergids have special cellular thickenings at the micropylar tip called filiform apparatus, which play an important role in guiding the pollen tubes into the synergid.

ii) Micropyle- The micropyle is remaining as small pore in the seed coat. During seed germination, this facilitates the entry of oxygen and water into the seed.
