What is the fruit of a flower called?
A fruit is the ripened ovary or ovaries of a flowering plant, potentially along with some other related tissues. Technically the ovary doesn't have to be part of the flower, but in practice, it pretty much always is; the whole point of flowers is to direct pollinating insects to it so that they can pick up pollen from one flower and deposit it in the ovary of another flower. If the ovary weren't in the flower, then there would be no point in having the flower at all.So the fruit of a flower is called a "fruit".There are various kinds of fruits: berries, aggregate fruits, accessory fruits, pomes, drupes ... but they're all fruits.
What is the difference between a true fruit and a false fruit?
A true fruit develops from the ovary of a flower after fertilization, containing seeds. A false fruit forms from other parts of the flower, such as the receptacle or floral tube, without involving the ovary. Examples of true fruits include apples and oranges, while examples of false fruits include strawberries and figs.
Fruits typically develop from A embryo B endosperm C anther or D ovarian wall?
DAs the ovules develop into seeds, the ovary begins to ripen and the ovary wall, the pericarp, may become fleshy (as in berries or drupes), or form a hard outer covering (as in nuts). In some multiseeded fruits, the extent to which the flesh develops is proportional to the number of fertilized ovules.[13] The pericarp is often differentiated into two or three distinct layers called the exocarp (outer layer, also called epicarp),mesocarp (middle layer), and endocarp (inner layer). In some fruits, especially simple fruits derived from an inferior ovary, other parts of the flower (such as the floral tube, including the petals, sepals, and stamens), fuse with the ovary and ripen with it. In other cases, the sepals,petals and/or stamens and style of the flower fall off. When such other floral parts are a significant part of the fruit, it is called an accessory fruit. Since other parts of the flower may contribute to the structure of the fruit, it is important to study flower structure to understand how a particular fruit forms.[1]
How do flowers make seeds and fruits?
By the Wind and the pollen. Because the wind carries the pollen over plants flower and all other things that grow!
What is the defference between self and cross pollination?
Self pollinationWhen pollen grains from a flower are carried to the stigma of the same flower or on the other flower of the same plant, the phenomenon is called self pollination.Cross pollinationWhen the pollen grains from a flower are carried to the stigma of the flower on other plant, the phenomenon is called cross pollination.
How the gumamela flower attached to the stem?
The flower is attached to the stem at the peduncle, which has a swollen tip called the receptacle to which the other flower parts are attached.
What is the list of true fruits?

What is the difference between berries and fruits?
Berries are a type of fruit that typically have multiple seeds and come from a single flower with one ovary. Fruits, on the other hand, are the mature ovary of a flowering plant that typically contains seeds. So, all berries are fruits, but not all fruits are berries.
What does a petals on a plant do?
A flower petal attracts insects and other life forms that may spread it's pollen to other plants. This allows for reproduction.
