Question

State whether the following statements are true or false.
Formation of fruit without fertilization is called parthenogenesis.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Parthenocarpy (literally meaning "virgin fruit") is the natural or artificially induced production of fruit without fertilization of ovules, which makes the fruit seedless. Pathogenesis is the reproduction from an ovum without fertilization, especially as a normal process in some invertebrates and lower plants.

So, the correct option is, 'False'.
