Question

Describe the post fertilisation change in a flower

Answer 1

Answer:

After fertilization, the zygote divides several times to form an embryo. The fertilized ovule forms a seed. The seed contains an embryo, enclosed in a protective covering, called the seed coat. As the seed grows further, other floral parts wither and fall off. This leads to the growth of the ovary, which enlarges and ripens to become a fruit with a thick wall called the pericarp.

Answer 2

The post fertilisation changes in a flower are as follows :-

• Shedding of sepals, petals, stamens, style and stigma.
• The Zygote develops into embryo.
• The fertilised ovule develops into seed.
• The wall of the overtime produces pericarp (wall of fruit).

And at last, the ripened ovary along with the pericarp and seed, becomes the fruit.
