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.
