Answer 1

Ovary, ovule, embryo sac, placenta

Explanation:

These terms are associated with the gynoecium, which is the female reproductive part of a flower. The ovary contains the ovules where the embryo sac develops, and the placenta is the part of the ovary where the ovules are attached. Other options include terms not specific to the gynoecium, such as stamen or tapetum (male parts) and thalamus (flower base).
