-- There is no 'heat' in a microwave oven.

-- If the fruit has moisture (water) in it, then it will react to being in the microwave oven in the
same way as any other substance with water or fat in it reacts: The water molecules in the fruit
will resonate with, and absorb energy from, the microwave energy, and their temperature will rise.

-- If the process is allowed to continue for a sufficient period of time, then the water in the fruit
will become downright hot, and a puddle of steaming hot fruit compote will greet you when you
open the door of the oven.
