Development of Fruit and Seeds

Fruit development
Fruit is the perfect growth of the ovary (ovarian). Each ovary contains one or more of
the ovule (ovulum), which each contains an egg cell. The ovule is fertilized through a
process that begins by pollination events, namely the transfer of pollen from anthers
to the stigma. After pollen grains embedded in the stigma, pollen grains germinate
and grow into a reed inside pollen grains containing sperm. This reed stalks continue
to grow through the pistil to the ovule, where there is unity between the sperm from
pollen to egg cells that inhabit the ovule, forming a zygote which is diploid.
Fertilization in flowering plants involves both Plasmogamy, namely the unity of
protoplasm of the egg and sperm, and kariogami, namely the unity of both the cell
nucleus.
After that, the zygote formed start to grow into an embryo (institutions), would be
seeds grow into seeds, and the ovary wall, called pericarp, grow into a fleshy (on
stone fruit or drupa) or form a protective layer of the dry and hard (on the fruit geluk
or nux). Meanwhile, the petals of a flower (sepals), crown (petal), benangsari
(stamen) and pistil (pistil) would fall or could be survived in part until the fruit
becomes. Fruit development continues until the seeds are ripening. In some seedy
fruit, fruit growth is generally proportional to the amount of fruit ovule.
Fruit wall, derived from the development of the ovary wall on the flower, known as
perikarp (pericarpium). This Perikarp often develops further, so it can be divided into
two layers or more. That in the outer part is called the outer wall, eksokarp
(exocarpium), or epikarp (epicarpium), which in the wall called in or endokarp
(endocarpium); as well as the middle layer (can be several layers) called the wall of
the middle or mesokarp (mesocarpium).
In some fruits, especially fruits from a single ovary submerged, sometimes parts of
other flowers (flower jewelry, for instance tubes, lids, crown, or benangsari) united
with the ovary and also growing form of fruit. If the parts is the main part of the fruit,
the fruit was then called false fruit. That's why is important to study the structure of
interest, in relation to understanding how a variety of fruit is formed.
