Solution:
Ripened ovary or fertilized ovary is called fruit which consists of pericarp and seeds formed after fertilization. Nucellus may disappear or persist as perisperm of the fruit which is nutritive in nature. Ovules at maturity or ripened ovules are known as seeds. Integuments of ovule form seed coat. Raphe is the ridge like structure formed by funiculus.
