  1. edible fruit

    In botany, a fruit is the seed-bearing structure in flowering plants that is formed from the ovary after flowering. Fruits are the means by which flowering plants (also known as angiosperms) disseminate their seeds. Edible fruits in particular have long propagated using the movements of humans and animals in a symbiotic relationship that is the means for seed dispersal for the one group and nutrition for the other; in fact, humans and many animals have become dependent on fruits as a source of food. Consequently, fruits account for a substantial fraction of the world's agricultural output, and some (such as the apple and the pomegranate) have acquired extensive cultural and symbolic meanings. In common language usage, fruit normally means the seed-associated fleshy structures (or produce) of plants that typically are sweet or sour and edible in the raw state, such as apples, bananas, grapes, lemons, oranges, and strawberries. In botanical usage, the term fruit also includes many structures that are not commonly called 'fruits' in everyday language, such as nuts, bean pods, corn kernels, tomatoes, and wheat grains.

  1. edible fruit

    Edible fruit refers to the mature ovary of a flowering plant, typically sweet or savory, that can be consumed by humans or animals without causing harm. It often contains seeds and is usually a critical part of a plant's reproductive system. Not all fruits are edible and their edibility can depend on ripeness or cultural preferences. Edible fruits are commonly consumed raw, but can also be cooked, preserved or used as flavoring in various kinds of food and beverages. Many fruits are also nutritional, providing essential vitamins, fiber, and other nutrients. Examples of edible fruits include apples, oranges, berries, and bananas.
