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

"Which molecule controls the rate of pentose phosphate pathway?
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Part 1:

Correct option is A: "NaDP+/NaDPH"

Part 2:

Correct option is F: "glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase"

Explanation:

Various levels of control are put in place to keep a check on the pathway. This is an example of one such control. This dehydrogenase enzyme is responsible to control the rate of reaction and it is stimulated by NADP+ while it is inhibited by NaDPH. The oxidative reaction is under the influence of the NaDP+/NaDPH concentration, which is catalyzed by glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
