Question

The fruit is a fleshy pome.

• A. Apple
• B. Banana
• C. Cashew
• D. Fig

Hint:

The key to identifying pome fruits is the structure: fleshy outer part and a core containing seeds, as seen in apples and pears.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

A fleshy pome is a type of fruit that has a thick fleshy outer layer derived from the receptacle of the flower, and the inner core contains seeds. Apples are a prime example of fleshy pome fruits, as their structure consists of a thick fleshy layer surrounding the central core, which holds the seeds. Other fruits like bananas and figs do not have the pome structure, and cashews are drupe fruits with a different arrangement.
