Ncert solutions for Class 11th Biology Lab Manual Chapter 8 Exercise 10 Question 2

Answer 1

it is formed either from one flower i.e terminal..... or from other solitary lateral  flowers  

Answer 2

The existence of a single flower is named inflorescence.

The solitary flower is a type of flower at a particular position on a plant. This flower arises singly or is segregated from other flowers by the vegetative area.

• Pomegranate develops from a fluorescence flower so it is an inflorescence type fruit.
• The inflorescence is a dichasial cyme containing hermaphrodite, staminate and middle flowers, which are campanulate and tubular, respectively. Both pin- and thrum-type flowers are established in hermaphrodite flowers.
• Pomegranate is barry-type fruit.
• A pomegranate flower is also considered a simple fruit. This flower has numerous ovaries, and each ovary gives birth to one ovule. So the raspberry will be an aggregate fruit, and each of the ovaries will formulate a single seed.
