Solution
Ovary - gametophyte
Explanation:
The pairing Ovary-gametophyte is incorrect because the ovary is a part of the sporophyte generation in plants. It is a sporophytic structure that contains ovules, within which the female gametophyte (embryo sac) develops. Thus, the ovary itself is not a gametophyte but a part of the diploid sporophyte phase housing the gametophyte.
