In certain whole groups of plants the ovules stand erect, and in others they are suspended; and within the same ovarium of some few plants, one ovule holds the former and a second ovule the latter position.

在某些整群物中， 直立，而在另一些物群中， 悬空；在少数物的同一个， 一个占据前者的位置， 第二个占据后者的位置。

If so, the position of the ovules, even when one is erect and the other suspended within the same ovarium, would follow the selection of any slight deviations in position which favoured their fertilisation, and the production of seed.

如果是这样， 的位置， 即使一个直立而另一个悬置在同一个，也将遵循有利于它们受精和种生产的任何轻微位置偏差的选择。
