Solution

The correct option is B

Fruits which develop from parts of the flower other than the ovary


Fruits which develop from the ovary are called true fruits while fruits in which the bulk of the fruit develops from parts of the flower other than the ovary are called false fruits or accessory fruits. Apple is an example of a false fruit. The fleshy part of apple is the enlarged thalamus of the flower.
