We had to draw this in my forensic botany class and label all the parts. I added an extra label that said, “Delicious!”
Typically a fruit start to develop after that an ovule is fertilized as a result of the process of pollination, the ovary begins to enlarge. The petals of the flower drop and the ovule develops into a seed.
The ovary, together with accessory parts of the flower or other organs ( e.g. scales, bracts, modified branches, perianth, or inflorescence parts.) comes to form a structure surrounding the seed or seeds that is the fruit. Fruit development continues until the seeds have matured.
