Solution
The correct option is C Placenta
The major edible part of a brinjal fruit (egg plant) is the placenta. The egg-shaped glossy purple fruit has white flesh with a meaty texture. The cut surface of the flesh rapidly turns brown when the fruit is cut open. Berry, the fruit contains numerous small, soft seeds which, though edible, taste bitter because, as a relative of tobacco, they contain nicotinoid alkaloids.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
