Answer: (C) caryopsis
A caryopsis is a type of simple, dry fruit that is characteristic of the grass family (Poaceae), which includes grains like maize, rice, and wheat. In this type of fruit, the pericarp (the fruit wall) is fused with the seed coat, forming a single unit. This is the defining feature that distinguishes a caryopsis from other types of fruits.
