Solution

The correct option is A Regma
The fruit of castor is a schizocarp fruit which splits into three cocci as it is derived from a syncarpous tricarpellary ovary. It is called regma.
Siliqua and follicle are dehiscent capsular fruits.
Lomentum is a schizocarpic constricted between seeds.
So, the correct answer is 'Regma'
