Hint:
The pistil's expanded basal region, which is its female organ. Ovules are found in the ovary, and after fertilization, they transform into seeds. The ovary develops into a fruit that contains the seeds and can be either dry or fleshy.
Complete step-by-step solution:
The ovary that contains the ovules grows into a fruit with one or more seeds inside. The ovules present inside it turn into a seed when fertilization takes place. An embryo is a microscopic, immature plant that is present in every seed.
As seeds continue to form and after fertilization, the ovary's walls enlarge and thicken. The ripened fruit may develop from the ovary or other sections of the flower, like the perianth, depending on the species of flower. The pericarp is made up of the ovary wall (fruit wall).
At maturity, the ovary wall (pericarp) is mostly soft or fleshy.
There are many types of fruits depending on what part of the flower it is made of, structure of pericarp, endocarp et cetera. Two such types are dry and fleshy fruits.
Dry fruits as the name applies are a little on the hard and rough side. Their pericarp is dry, thin and undifferentiated. For example: groundnut, almond, walnut, mustard.
Fleshy fruits have succulent pericarps and they are divided into outer- epicarp, middle- mesocarp, inner- endocarp. For example: apple, guava, orange and mango.
Hence, option A is the correct answer.
Note:
After the onset of maturation, the ovules gradually develop into seeds, and the ovary develops into fruit (embryo sac). Seed typically consists of seed coat, endosperm and embryo. This embryo develops from the maturation of zygote.
