After fertilization in a flowering plant, the ovule and the ovary develop respectively into the:

AStigma and the style
BFruit and the seed
CEmbryo and endosperm
DSeed and the fruit
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Seed and the fruit
1. After fertilization the ovule matures into the seed. 2. The surrounding ovary matures into the fruit. 3. The seed later germinates into a new plantlet using stored food. 4. Reversing seed and fruit, or naming embryo or floral parts, is incorrect, so those are ruled out. _Source: Balbharati (Maharashtra Board) Class 10 Science & Technology Part 2, Ch 3 "Life Processes in Living Organisms Part 2", p.37_
