Question

List the different steps in the formation of seeds and fruits.

Answer 1

After the process of fertilization, the ovary and the ovule develop and ripen. The ripened ovary of the plant is called fruit that can contain one or more seeds whereas the ripened ovule is called seed that contains an embryo and is surrounded by a protective layer. The ovary wall becomes the fruit wall. Other parts of the flowers like petals, sepals get dried up and fall off.
