Fruit:

  1. The term "fruit" refers to the fleshy protective covering that encloses the seed, or embryo, of a plant.
  2. The egg cell and pollen combine during fertilization to create the zygote.
  3. This zygote develops into a seed in the end.
  4. The fleshy seed coat is made by the ovary and nucellus tissues.
  5. The seed receives nutrients from its tough outer flesh layer.
  6. Fruit is the name for its fleshy exterior.
  7. Thus, the flower's ovary develops into a fruit.
