The primary purpose of fruit that develops on flowering plants is protection  and dispersal of seed.

A fruit is a seed container that develops from an ovary and any of the tissues that surround it.  Fruits are products of flowers and will therefore be found only in flowering plants.

The fruit protects the developing seed and aids in the dispersal of fully developed seeds which is accomplished by animals when they are attracted the fruit and eat it, walk off and defecate out the seeds elsewhere.

Fruits that develop from other flower parts apart from the ovary are called accessory fruits (pomes) e.g.  melons and squash

Novosadov [1.4K]

        The right answer here is option C. They occur in areas with ancient, mineral-poor soil.

         An example of that is Amazonia in Brazil, it's one of the biggest forests on earth, and at the same time, we know its soil is poor, but at the same time it has some special materials that can be found there, such as niobium. This forest is, too, rainy almost all the time, and this many trees maintain the temperature of the whole earth stabilized. These kinds of forests can grow in this soil because of the burlap, that's organic materials from its own trees. It's consumed by them, and through this way, it survives and extends its size when humans don't use its resources too much.
