Solution

The correct option is B False
Fruit is a seed-bearing structure in flowering plants (also known as angiosperms) formed from the ovary after flowering. Fruits are the means by which angiosperms disseminate seeds. Pepo is a fleshy, several-seeded fruit that has developed from one flower having a single ovary divided into several carpels, which develops a firm or tough rind as it matures. This type of fruit is found in plants of the family Cucurbitaceae.
So the given statement is false.
