∙ 14y agoIn the fifth grade, we did an experiment in class to see what kind of seed dried out first from a multitude of different types of produce. We used many things, like cucumbers and apples. But, the experiment was to see which FRUIT seed dried out first. Therefore, I asked the teacher what the difference between a vegetable and a fruit was. She had said that anything with seeds is technically considered a fruit.
