Question

A fruit without seed is not useful in case of

• A. Grape
• B. Pomegranate
• C. Orange
• D. Lemon.

Answer 1

The correct option is B Pomegranate

Pomegranate is a fruit with outer hard layer formed of exocarp and partially mesocarp, which also forms septa in the fruit. The endocarp covers the seeds as a papery structure and the seeds have modified fleshy testa which can be eaten. So, if seed is removed, the rest is not useful.

In grape, the pericarp is eaten and seed is not eaten.

In orange and lemon, the endocarp is edible/usefull and seed is not eaten.

So, the correct answer is 'Pomegranate'.
