AP BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Botanically, a fruit is a mature ovary and its associated parts. It usually contains seeds, which have developed from the enclosed ovule after fertilization, although development without fertilization, called parthenocarpy, is known, for example, in bananas.

Detailed explanation-2: -They’re formed from one ovary in one of the plant’s flowers. As the ovary turns into fruit, different ovary parts become different fruit parts; when fertilized, small structures called ovules become the fruit’s seeds-and more fertilized ovules means more seeds!

Detailed explanation-3: -Angiosperms plants have enclosed seeds in the fruits.

Detailed explanation-4: -Sometimes fruits like tomatoes or apples surprise us with seeds sprouting inside. This is called vivipary and it occurs when the natural protections within the fruit are no longer sufficient to maintain seed dormancy.
