The correct answer is Mango

Explanation:

  • Fruits are typically classified as true fruits and false fruits based on the part of the plant they develop from.
  • True fruits develop from the ovary of a flower and contain seeds, while false fruits develop from other parts of the flower, such as the receptacle or calyx.
  • Mango is a true fruit as it develops from the ovary of the flower and contains the seed(s) within.
    • Apple: This is a false fruit because it develops from the receptacle of the flower rather than the ovary. The fleshy part we eat is derived from the enlarged receptacle.
    • Strawberry: This is also a false fruit. The fleshy part of the strawberry is derived from the receptacle, and the true fruits are the tiny seeds on its surface.
    • Cashew: The cashew apple is a false fruit, developed from the pedicel of the flower, while the true fruit is the cashew nut itself.
