Solution

After fertilization

Ovum turns into embryo which differentiates and grows through various developmental stages. Endosperm provides food supply to the embryo..

Ovary swells and ripens to form a fruit.

. the ovule increases in size and dry up gradually to get transformed into a seed.

Sepals and petals wither and drop off as they had already completed their functions.
