Continutaion of seeds and plants from before...Questions are in the details box?

Does the size of the seed determine the size of the mature plant that will grow from it? Explain using examples



Examine the outside of the apple for remaining flower parts. Which structures are present?



Where is the ovary of the apple?



Name several mature ovaries that you might have for a snack

Continutaion of seeds and plants from before...Questions are in the details box?
1 ) First Answer -- No . there is no relation between the seed



size and the plant/ tree that grows from it.



A seed of pinus tree is half the size of Common bean seed ;



but pinus is a huge tree.



Mango tree is much smaller than any conifer ( Pinus again),



still the mango seed is hundred times larger than that of



pinus.



Ficus ( Fig tree ) have seeds of the size of pin heads. But the



trees themselves are huge and bigger than apple or mango



trees. Both of them have much larger seeds.



2 )Second answer -- A mature apple fruit shows at one end



the stalk and at the other end the remnants of sepals , and



stamens in dried withered condition.

3) The apple ovary is literally 'sunk' into the thalamus and



hence it is said to be inferior. See figure A 1 in the above



diagram which shows sectional view of flower. Also see the diagram in the link below--

4 ) Fourth answer - Cucumber, tomato , capsicum ; grape



fruits and grapes ( Both are different entities please note )



are some of the mature ovaries one can have for snacks; so also oranges , sapodillas and sweet limes.
