Explain the classifications of fruits based on ... - SS3 Biology Development Of Fruits Question

Fruits can be classified based on their development into three main types: simple fruits, aggregate fruits, and multiple fruits. 

Simple Fruits: These develop from a single ovary of a single flower. They can be further categorized into fleshy fruits, such as berries (e.g., tomatoes, grapes) and drupes (e.g., peaches, cherries), as well as dry fruits like nuts (e.g., acorns, chestnuts) and capsules (e.g., poppy, milkweed).

Aggregate Fruits: These form from multiple ovaries within a single flower, and each ovary develops into a small individual fruit, called a fruitlet. Examples include strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries.

Multiple Fruits: These develop from a cluster of flowers closely packed together, where each flower contributes to the fruit structure. Pineapples and figs are examples of multiple fruits.
