The answer is Simple Fruit

Answer 2

Aggregate fruit is developed from a single flower with a multicarpellary apocarpous superior ovary.

Simple fruit: From the monocarpellary ovary or multicarpellary syncarpous ovary these fruits develop. The gynoecium produces only one fruit.

Composite fruit: All composite fruit is false. There are generally many ovaries and other floral parts in these fruits that make up the fruit.

Aggregate fruit: These are the fruits that develop from the multicarpellary apocarpous  superiorovary.
