After fertilization, the ovary of the flower develops into fruit, while the ovule develops into seed. The ovary wall becomes the pericarp (fruit wall). Petals, sepals, and stamens usually wither. Some fruits are parthenocarpic (without fertilization, e.g., banana). The fruit protects seeds and aids in dispersal. Anther produces pollen grains. Thus, fruit is a mature ovary.

The hypothalamus is a small, highly complex region located at the base of the brain, near the pituitary gland. It is the primary link between the nervous and endocrine systems. It controls the pituitary gland (the 'master gland') both neurally (via the posterior pituitary, where it stores and releases ADH and oxytocin) and hormonally (via the anterior pituitary, by secreting releasing and inhibiting hormones that regulate the production of anterior pituitary hormones). Through the pituitary, the hypothalamus regulates a vast array of bodily functions.
