mature plant
B
seedling
C
young plant
D

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The outer wall of the ovary develops into the fleshy white part of the apple. The inner wall of the ovary becomes the apple core around the seeds. In summer, the apples grow bigger and gradually change color, and the tree produces new growth. In fall, the apples ripen.

Detailed explanation-2: -From Seed to Apple After an apple seed is planted, it takes a few weeks before it will sprout. Then the roots grow down into the soil. The stem grows upward and toward the light and leaves begin to develop on the stem. Apple trees do not bear fruit until they are 5–8 years old.

Detailed explanation-3: -Stage 1-Seed Stage: Apple seeds are planted and covered with soil. With sunlight and water, the apple seeds will begin to form tiny roots. Stage 2-Tree Stage: The seeds that were planted emerge from below the surface of the soil as sprouts. These sprouts need water and sunshine to help them to continue to grow.

Detailed explanation-4: -The branches of non-bearing young apple trees will normally grow 12 to 18 inches per year while the branches of bearing apple trees will grow 8 to 12 inches in a season.
