Answer is option "b"

Explanation:

  • Mango/coconut is a drupe in which the endocarp is stony hard, mesocarp is fleshy and the epicarp is membranous. It is a succulent fruit.
  • Berry is a succulent fruit with a soft and edible pericarp.
  • Capsule and siliqua are dry dehiscent fruits.
  • A drupe mostly contains a single seed encased by a solidified endocarp, which regularly holds fast near the seed inside. The mango (Mangifera indica) is a drupe with an external rough skin (exocarp), a beefy mesocarp and a hard, stony endocarp (pit) encompassing the large seed.
  • Hence, the right answer is option b "Drupe".
