Question

What is Samara and Schizocarp?

Answer 1

Plant scientists have categorized fruits into three main types based on the three ways of fruit development: simple fruits, aggregation fruits, and numerous (or composite) fruits. The classifications reflect how the ovary and other flower organs are placed, as well as how the fruits mature, but they are not evolutionarily relevant because different plant species can be grouped together.

Complete answer:
Samara and Schizocarp are two different types of fruits:
1. Samara fruit: The fruit is a small, winged, one-seeded fruit that grows in clusters on trees. Maple (Acer): a double samara, ash (Fraxinus), elm (Ulmus), and tree of paradise are just a few examples (Ailanthus). Samaras look like winged pine seeds, but they're actually single-seeded fruits with a pericarp covering enclosing the seed. Even though it belongs to the legume family, the leguminous tipu tree (Tipuana tipu) bears a winged fruit that looks a lot like a samara (Leguminosae or Fabaceae). The samaras, like helicopters, rotate as they fly through the air, providing an excellent technique of dissemination.
2. Schizocarp fruit: A little dry fruit made up of two or more portions that split apart, but each section, or carpel (also known as a mericarp), stays indehiscent and carries a single seed. This type of fruit is normally put under indehiscent dry fruits since the seed-bearing parts or carpels (called mericarps) do not break apart. This is the carrot family's distinctive fruit (Umbelliferae or Apiaceae). Carrot (Daucus), celery (Apium), and sweet fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) are examples.

Note:
Fruits are the vehicles through which angiosperms (flowering plants) disperse their seeds. Edible fruits, in example, have long been propagated by people and animals in a symbiotic connection that serves as a means of seed distribution for one group and nutrition for the other; in fact, humans and many animals have become reliant on fruits as a food source.
