A fruit developed from hypanthodium inflorescence is called :
Caryopsis
Hesperidium
Sorosis
Syconus
Solution
A syconus is a type of fruit that develops from a hypanthodium inflorescence, as seen in figs (Ficus).
The hypanthodium inflorescence is a fleshy receptacle that houses many small flowers inside a cup-like structure.
Other options:
Caryopsis: A type of dry, indehiscent fruit (e.g., in grasses).
Hesperidium: A fleshy fruit with a leathery rind (e.g., citrus fruits).
Sorosis: A multiple fruit formed from the fusion of several flowers (e.g., pineapple).
Thus, Syconus is the correct answer.
