Question

Mango and Apple have fleshy fruit ​

Answer 1

Answer:

In fleshy fruits, the pericarp is typically made up of three distinct layers: the epicarp (also known as exocarp), which is the outermost layer; the mesocarp, which is the middle layer; and the endocarp, which is the inner layer surrounding the ovary or the seeds.

Answer 2

Mango and Apple have fleshy fruit ​is a true statement

Explanation:

• Both apple and mango belong to fleshy edible fruit type. They are basically formed of the three layers – exocarp, mesocarp and the endocarp.
• A fruit’s main function is to protect the seeds inside the endocarp layer with outer two layers providing protection and nutrition to the seeds.
• Hence the exo and mesocarp are the edible fleshy part of the fruit.
• Apple is a pome fruit with the ovary of the flower developing into the core fruit with the seeds embedded in the endocarp; with the receptacle part developing into false fruit which is the fleshy edible part of the fruit formed in the meso and exocarp.  
• Mango is a drupe fruit with single large hard seed in the endocarp and thick fleshy layers.
