Answer: Seedless.
- A Produced only in cereals
- B Larger than normal
- C Rich in endosperm
- D Seedless
Correct answer: D. Seedless
Explanation: Parthenocarpic fruits develop from the ovary without fertilisation and are therefore seedless, as in banana.
Double fertilisation in angiosperms: one male gamete fuses with the egg to form the diploid zygote (syngamy), while the second fuses with the two polar nuclei to form the triploid primary endosperm nucleus (triple fusion). Image: Triploid, CC BY 3.0, via Wikimedia Commons.
