Q. In which of the following plants, sepals do not fall off after fertilisation and remain attached to the fruit?

Reproduction in Organisms

Solution:

In plants, soon after pollination, the flower begins to fade. It is sometimes accompanied by sudden increase in respiration and ethylene production. The petals, stamens and style wither away. The calyx (sepals) may however persist in brinjal and tomato.
