In Anatropous ovule, the body of the ovule is completely turned at 180° angle, due to unilateral growth of funiculus, so it is also called inverted ovule. The chalaza and micropyle lie in straight line. The hilum and micropyle lie side by side very close to each other. This type of ovule is found in 80% families of angiosperms but not in Capsella. In this ovule, micropyle is facing downward condition. This is the most common type of ovule so that it is considered as a "typical ovule" of angiosperms
