Know About Fruits And Their Benefits

Fruit comes from the transformation of the ovary of a flower after fertilization. The ovary protects and nourishes the seeds until they are ripe and then helps with their dispersal. Different fruits do this different ways. There are many kinds of fruit. Not only are peaches, cherries, and bananas fruit, but also pumpkins, grains of wheat and peapods.

How fruits are categorized

The first difference we can make with fruit is whether or not it opens to release its seeds when it is ripe. If it does, it is called ‘dry dehiscent”, if it does not, it is called “in dehiscent”.

We can also divide fruit by whether it is fleshy and juicy or hard and dry. Another way is to look at how the fruit grows. If it comes in bunches made up of smaller fruit, it is called “collective”.

There are also true and false fruits, according to changes in the ovary or other parts of the flower, such as the receptacle tissue. This is the case with apples and pears. Apple is considered to be a false fruit. It is because it is receptacle, and not the ovary of the apple that has grown and become fleshy, forming a pulp. The true fruit or ovary is actually what we call the core of the apple.
