Solution

The correct option is B False
A fruit is a seed-bearing structure in flowering plants (also known as angiosperms) formed from the ovary after flowering. An aggregate fruit results from the joining together of several ovaries of the same flower. This process starts with a flower that contains several carpels with an equal number of ovaries. As the ovaries develop and increase in size they become attached together. Aggregate fruits are also either true, without accessory parts, or accessory, with additional floral parts.
So the given statement is false.
