蒴果, 荚果
a dry, hard covering type of fruit that splits open to release seeds, such as in poppy seeds or okra
A capsule is a type of dry fruit that develops from the ovary of a flower. It typically consists of several compartments, each containing seeds. Capsules can vary in size, shape, and texture depending on the plant species. When mature, capsules split open to release the seeds inside. This method of dispersal allows seeds to spread and germinate in new areas. Capsules are found in a wide range of plants, including poppies, irises, and milkweeds, and they play a vital role in the reproduction and propagation of these species.
