- Given a chance to become a bioentrepreneur, which of the plant products will you be able to place in the market? Why? What are the challenges in the technical aspect that you might encounter in developing such product?James is preparing a plate of papaya (Carica papaya) for his sleepover friends. As he cuts open the papaya, they discover numbers of slime-covered seed inside, surrounded by soft flesh and soft skin. Before papaya fruits ripen and the seeds inside them mature, their flesh is bitter or sour. Only later does it become tasty.Discuss how this feature improves the odds for the plant's reproductive success and identify the possible agents to disperse the seeds.
