Canteloupe pollination/larva?

Question

My question is simple: is larva (bee larva?) involved in the pollination or growth process of canteloupes? I just cut one open, and part of the rind looked like those little tuberish growths that contain necessary larva in fig fruit, and I then read that bees pollinate canteloupes. Please don't respond unless you're sure of your accuracy. Thanks!

Are you saying that my cantaloupe has always been free from larva? I'm afraid I can't quite understand you.

I'm aware bee larva exists in the honeycomb. However, a type of hornet, or some such, matures inside of fig fruit.

Answer 1

Cantaloupe is pollinated by bee, but not their larva. Bee larva never leave the hive until they are fully grown. Cantaloupe are pollinated by the insect transferring pollen by moving from flower to flower. Pollination has nothing to do with bee larva at least not in this case.

Answer 2

the answer is simple too:

tuberish growth of the rind is what you said to be - tuberish growth of the rind, of whatsoever cause (some infection afrer bruise??)

bee larvae live in the honeycomb cells in a beehive or wild nest. their only goal is to receive food and get bigger.

canteloupe is not fig - it is a single fruit produced from single flower in which pollination took place. as you may remember
the fig is many flowers/little friuts - tiny little pits- inside the fig . that is why the little "bee" needs to get inside

one canteloupe = one fruit with many seeds inside (like tomato)
but
one fig ´= the skin and flesh that contains many individual fruits (little pits) a bit like a strawberry that is just fleshy core with little fruits on surface (little pits)
