Which part of a flower develops into a seed?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Ovule.
The ovule is the part of a flower that develops into a seed after fertilization. It is located within the ovary of the pistil and contains the female reproductive cell or egg. When the male gamete from the pollen fuses with the egg cell in the ovule, it forms a zygote, which later develops into a seed that can grow into a new plant.
Other options:
-
Stamen: The male reproductive part that produces pollen.
-
Petal: The colorful part of the flower that attracts pollinators.
-
Pistil: The female reproductive part consisting of stigma, style, and ovary, but not the seed itself.
