Juicy hair-like structures observed in the lemon fruit develop from

  1. exocarp
  2. mesocarp
  3. endocarp
  4. mesocarp and endocarp.

Answer

(3) endocarp

Solution

Lemon is a hesperidium (berry-type fruit): the outer rind is the exocarp (flavedo), the white spongy layer is the mesocarp (albedo) and the membranous lining of the segments is the endocarp.

⇒ The juicy, multicellular hair-like juice sacs project from the inner surface of the endocarp into the locules.

∴ The edible juicy hairs develop from the endocarp.

Answer: (3)
