The correct answer is: mango
In mango, coconut, plum, etc, the fruit is known as drupe (stony fruit). They develop from monocarpellary, superior ovaries and are one seeded. In mango, the pericarp is well differentiated into an outer thin epicarp, a middle fleshy edible mesocarp and an inner stony hard endocarp.
