Solution

The correct option is A
ovary, ovule

After fertilization by the pollen, the ovary develops into a fruit whereas the ovule develops a hard coat and is gradually converted into the seed. Fruits are the protective cases for the seeds and they help in their dispersal. Seeds give rise to new plants.
