Geocarpic fruit is

  1. carrot
  2. radish
  3. ground nut
  4. turnip.

Answer

(3) ground nut

Solution

Geocarpic fruits develop and ripen below the soil surface.

⇒ In groundnut ( Arachis hypogaea), after fertilisation the stalk of the ovary (gynophore) elongates and pushes the young ovary into the soil, where the pod matures.

∵ Carrot, radish and turnip are modified tap roots storing food, not fruits.

∴ Groundnut has geocarpic fruit.

Answer: (3)
