    Question

    In plants, after fertilisation the ovary develops into a _________.

    A.

    Seed

    B.

    Flower

    C.

    Seedling

    D.

    Fruit

    Correct option is D

    The correct answer is (d) Fruit

    Explanation:

    • In plants, fertilization occurs when the male gamete (pollen) fuses with the female gamete (ovule).
    • After fertilization, the ovary of the flower develops into a fruit, while the ovules inside the ovary develop into seeds.
    • This process ensures the protection and dispersal of seeds for the next generation of plants.

    Information Booster:

    • Parts of a Flower After Fertilization:
      • Ovary → Fruit
      • Ovules → Seeds
      • Sepals and Petals → Wither Away
    • Importance of Fruit Formation:
      • Protects the developing seeds.
      • Aids in seed dispersal through animals, wind, or water.
    • Examples of Fruit Formation:
      • Mango, Apple, Tomato, and Pea Pods are examples where the ovary matures into a fruit.
