For a layman, both apple and banana are fruits. But a biology student categorises fruits as true fruits, false fruits and parthenocarpic fruits. Justify.

 

 

Answers (1)

Those fruits which are developed from any other part of the plant other than the ovule is called false fruit, so, apple is a false fruit because it is obtained from thalamus of the plant.

Parthenocarpic fruits are those which are developed without fertilization and banana is a parthenocarpic fruit.
