    2) After a flower is pollinated, which part of the flower becomes the seed?

    The ovary encloses one to many seeds inside . After fertilization these ovules  turn in to seeds .

  2. A fertilized ovule becomes a seed (except in odd cases like dandelion, which is apomictic).  The matured, ripened ovary and all accessory parts becomes the fruit.

  3. Fruit in botany is defined as ripened ovary.

    The ovule which can be found inside the ovary will become the seed. Other part of the flower like petal and sepal will not become the part of the flower.

    However, sometime a fruit can be formed by other part of flower, such as the receptacle of the flower. In this case, the fruit is named as accessory fruit.

    Example: Apple, pear (ovary part is papery, inside the edible part.)  strawberry

    Fruit - Ovary

    Seed - Ovule

  4. the ovary or ovule
