A pea pod is formed from _____. A pea inside the pod is formed from ____.
A) an ovary; ovule B) endosperm; ovary C) an ovule; carpel D) an ovary; pollen grain
Answer:
A) an ovary; ovule
Step-by-step explanation:
Ovary is the female part of a flower where fertilization takes place. It houses and protects the ovule. The ovule contains the embryo, the food for the embryo and also a seed coat. Upon fertilization, the ovary develops into fruit, while the ovules develop into the seed found in the fruit.
Upon fertilization, in the pea pod, the pea is the ovule, while the pod is the ovary.
