To plant papaya seeds from a fruit, scoop out the seeds from a ripe papaya, wash them to remove any pulp, and then dry them. Plant the seeds in a pot with well-draining soil, keep the soil moist but not waterlogged, and place the pot in a warm and sunny location. The seeds should germinate in about two to three weeks.
The fruit come from the flowers. After the flowers are fertilized the fruit and the seeds inside, develop. This is the same for any fruit.

Yes, you can plant papaya seeds and successfully grow papaya trees at home. Papaya trees require warm temperatures, sunlight, well-draining soil, and regular watering to thrive. It may take a few years for the tree to bear fruit, but with proper care, you can enjoy homegrown papayas.
No, Papaya is NOT a Parthenocarpic since it is developed by sexual reproduction in plants and simply it has many seeds. PARTHENOCARPS do not have seeds.
Papaya is a flowering plant, therefore, it uses sexual reproduction. The tree can be either male or female or both. Only the female or hermaphrodite plant will fruit. The fruit contains seeds.
It disperse by animals
Papayas have tiny black peppercorn sized seeds and several hundred in each Papaya. It is an easy fruit to pick. I would think an animal that ate a papaya would also eat some seeds and they would germinate after going through them.The fruit gets eaten which the animals eat and they do not get eaten because they are too big and then they germinate and grow into a new plant.
If you open the seed up there will be another seed that you can plant in the ground and grow papaya.

because the female and parts of papaya plant are on two different plants so a alone plant fails to pollinate and fruit doesnot develop
The fruit of a plant helps in the reproduction and dispersal of seeds by protecting the seeds and attracting animals to eat the fruit and spread the seeds to new locations.
