Hi Uditya,
A Tapetum is a reflective layer of the choroid in the eyes of many animals, causing them to shine in the dark.
The tapetum is a specialised layer of nutritive cells found within the sporangium, particularly within the anther, of flowering plants, where it is located between the sporangenous tissue and the anther wall.
All the best.
