Default Fertilization

Hi. I wondered if anyone could answer a simple question. Once an ova
has been fertilized by the pollen nucleus, I understand that the ovary
of the plant becomes the fruit and the ovule becomes a seed. What
happens to the other ovum? Also if the ovule becomes the seed, are
fruit with multiple seeds (e.g apple) a result of mitosis?

Kind regards from a physisist who should probably know better.

JB
