Out of many papaya growing in our garden only a few bear food give reason
Answers
Answer:
Only female papaya plant bear fruits.
Explanation:
Garden might consists of numerous papaya plants and they produce flowers.
Out of which, only few flowers develop into fruits. This is because, papaya plant is dioecious, in general.
Flowers of the papaya plant are unisexual (i.e.) a plant has either male flowers (with stamens) or female flowers (with pistil).
Only the female flowers develop into fruit after pollination, and not the male ones.
Answer:
Plants bearing female flowers can bear fruits, and you may have some unisexual or dioecious male and female plans in your garden.
Such unisexual plants cannot produce fruits because they cannot give you flowers.
Apart from that, you can find the steminate and pistillate flowers in the papaya plants and self fertilization cannot be done in the papaya plants.
So different types of papaya plants can be developed in different seasons and you cannot expect the fruits from all plants in a particular season.
