Question

• A. Follicle
• B. Legume
• C. Silicula
• D. Silqua

Answer 1

The correct option is A Follicle

Follicle is a type of dehiscent dry fruit that develops from a superior unilocular ovary which dehisces from either the ventral or dorsal suture.

Legume fruits dehisces from two sutures.

Silicula and siliqua develop from a bicarpellary, falsely bilocular (unilocular ovary separated by a false septum known as replum) ovary.

So, the correct answer is 'Follicle'.
