Answer 2

The term parthenogenesis refers to the mechanism through which fruit is produced without fertilization and hence are seedless.

Explanation:

• The mechanism of reproduction in which fruits are developed by ovum without fertilization, it is called parthenogenesis.
• As fruits are produced without fertilization, they are devoid of seeds and thus are seedless.
• The mechanism of parthenogenesis is associated with fertilization. Thus option (a) and (b) are incorrect as it mentions pollination.
• In the case of option (c), it is incorrect because parthenocarpy fruits are produced without fertilization and are seedless.
• Thus it is inferred that parthenogenesis refers to a fruit that is (d) seedless without fertilization.
