The correct Answer is:
To determine which fruits show an edible thalamus, we need to understand the difference between true fruits and false fruits. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Definitions**: - **True Fruits**: These fruits develop solely from the ovary of the flower. Only the ovary is the edible part. - **False Fruits**: These fruits develop from the ovary as well as other floral parts, including the thalamus. In these fruits, the thalamus is also edible. 2. **Analyze the Options**: - **Option A: Apple, Custard Apple, Guava**: - Apple is a false fruit (edible thalamus). - Custard apple is a true fruit (only ovary is edible). - Guava is also a true fruit. - **Conclusion**: This option contains only one false fruit (apple) but not all fruits have edible thalamus. **Incorrect**. - **Option B: Apple, Strawberry, Pear**: - Apple is a false fruit (edible thalamus). - Strawberry is also a false fruit (edible thalamus). - Pear is a false fruit (edible thalamus). - **Conclusion**: All fruits in this option have an edible thalamus. **Correct**. - **Option C: Apple, Pineapple, Strawberry**: - Apple is a false fruit (edible thalamus). - Pineapple is a true fruit (only ovary is edible). - Strawberry is a false fruit (edible thalamus). - **Conclusion**: This option is incorrect because it includes a true fruit (pineapple). - **Option D: Jackfruit, Guava, Pineapple**: - Jackfruit is a true fruit (only ovary is edible). - Guava is a true fruit (only ovary is edible). - Pineapple is a true fruit (only ovary is edible). - **Conclusion**: This option is incorrect as all are true fruits. 3. **Final Answer**: - The correct answer is **Option B: Apple, Strawberry, Pear**. All these fruits show an edible thalamus.
