Dry Fruits can be divided into those in which the seeds are contained in aseedpod of some sort which opens to release the seeds (called Dehiscent), and those in which there isn't a seedpod which opens (Indehiscent). ...Dehiscent fruits have a seam that splits when the fruit is ripe, as with apea pod.

The main difference between these two is, dehiscent fruits do not disperse seeds on their own.
Their outer covering is required to be broken in order to disperse seeds and grow.
This can be done by the deterioration or consumption by the animals.
For example, pumpkin, peas, beans, etc.
On the other hand, indehiscent fruits get busted when they dry and seeds are dispersed.
