**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks about the type of fruit known as a "pome" and which plant it is associated with from the given options: mango, lychee, peach, and apple. 2. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Mango**: This fruit is classified as a drupe (or stone fruit), which has a single seed enclosed in a hard endocarp. Therefore, mango is not a pome. - **Lychee**: This fruit is categorized as a simple nut fruit, which also does not fit the definition of a pome. - **Peach**: Similar to mango, peach is also a drupe. It has a fleshy exterior and a hard pit, making it incorrect as a pome. - **Apple**: An apple is classified as a pome fruit.

This makes apple the correct answer. 3. **Conclusion**: After analyzing all the options, the correct answer to the question "Pome fruit is found in" is **apple**. **Final Answer**: Apple ---
