Answer Posted / anithaisro
A Legume is a dry dehiscent pod that splits on two sides.
(i.e. pea)
A Lomentum is a dry dehiscent fruit, a legume constricted
between the seeds. (i.e. Sophora)
A Follicle is a dry dehiscent fruit which splits on one
side only and may contain one or many seeds. (i.e.
columbine)
