The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the characteristics of the fruit that is chambered, developed from an inferior ovary, and has seeds with a succulent testa, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Terms**: - **Chambered Fruit**: This refers to a fruit that has multiple compartments or locules. Each locule can contain seeds. - **Inferior Ovary**: This indicates that the ovary is positioned below the attachment of other floral parts, which often results in a multilocular fruit. 2. **Identifying the Characteristics**: - The fruit must be chambered, meaning it has multiple compartments. - It must develop from an inferior ovary, which suggests that it is syncarpous (formed from multiple carpels). - The seeds should have a succulent testa, meaning the outer seed coat is fleshy and edible. 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option A: Orange**: This fruit is not chambered in the way described and has a different structure. - **Option B: Cucumber**: This is a berry but does not fit the description of having a succulent testa in the same way. - **Option C: Pomegranate**: This fruit is known for its chambered structure, develops from an inferior ovary, and has seeds with a juicy, edible covering (the succulent testa). - **Option D: Guava**: While guava has edible seeds, it does not have the chambered structure described. 4. **Conclusion**: - Based on the analysis of the options, the fruit that is chambered, developed from an inferior ovary, and has seeds with a succulent testa is **Option C: Pomegranate**. ### Final Answer: The correct answer is **Option C: Pomegranate**.
