alleryFruit develops from:
APetals
BSepals
COvule
DOvary (after fertilization; the ovary wall = pericarp)
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Ovary (after fertilization; the ovary wall = pericarp)
Ovary → fruit.
Ovary wall = pericarp (in mature fruit may be 3 layers: epicarp, mesocarp, endocarp).
Fleshy fruits (drupes, berries) have soft pericarp.
Dry fruits have hard/papery pericarp.
True fruit = from ovary only.
False/accessory fruit (apple) includes other floral parts.
