Best Answer

An apple is both a fruit and a vegetable. By definition, a vegetable is any plant whose fruit, seeds, roots, tubers, bulbs, stems, leaves, or flower parts are used as food, as the tomato, bean, beet, potato, onion, asparagus, spinach, or cauliflower. And a fruit is defined as, the developed ovary of a seed plant with its contents and accessory parts, as the pea pod, nut, tomato, or pineapple.

Thus, apples, pea pods, and tomatoes are both a fruit and a vegetable. However, onions, potatoes, and beets, are just vegetables.

No it is a fruit.

An apple is a fruit because it has seeds(pips).

While many foods are characterized by their 'use' as vegetables, from the view of Biology they are fruits when they contain seeds. Tomatoes, eggplants, squashes, are commonly thought of as a vegetable - but are fruits and seed-bearing.

Vegetables are the things we consume that are a structural part of the plant, like lettuce, carrots, asparagus, and cabbage.
