The banana "tree" is not really a tree, but a giant herb. The banana is the fruit of this herb.
The cluster of bananas sold in supermarkets is a "hand" of bananas, while the individual bananas on the hand are called fingers.
The strings that go up and down the length of bananas are called Phloem Bundles. They help distribute nutrients to every part of the growing bananas.
The yellow bananas that are most often sold in supermarkets are sometimes called "dessert bananas" because they are soft and sweet.
Plantains are a type of banana that are not as sweet and are usually cooked. While not as commonly eaten in North America, plantains are a dietary staple in many tropical regions.
It is believed by many experts that bananas were the first fruit cultivated by humans.
Alexander the great first came across bananas in India in 327 B.C.
Bananas were introduced to the United States at the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial Celebration, where they were sold wrapped in foil for 10 cents each.
Worldwide, bananas are the fourth largest fruit crop

Why will using hydrogen as a fuel lead to reduction in the use of fossil fuels?
Because hydrogen when burnt releases only water as a byproduct. Fossil fuels release pollution in the form of carbon dioxide, a powerful greenhouse gas, causing global warming. So hydrogen is a much better fuel than fossil fuel (coal, oil and natural gas).
Is coal better than fossil fuels?
Coal IS a fossil fuel
Why is hydrogen gas a good option for an alternative fuel to fossil fuel?
fossil fuel may be depleted soon. but hydrogen gas can me made available. also, if there are cheaper ways to split water into hydrogen and oxygen, then the better it is as water is available everywhere ----------------------------------------------------------------- Fuel cells produce hydrogen gas from fossil fuels, and renewable fuel sources. Hydrogen can also be made from other energy (electric) sources and electrolysis of water, but compressing and transporting it poses it's own problems. Despite this, the production of hydrogen as a fuel source uses more energy than can be gained from the hydrogen itself.
Why is hydrogen a better fuel than fossil fuels?
Hydrogen is more energy dense, cheaper, more abundant and when burned it produces water rather than carbon dioxide, so has less effect on the environment, as far as Global warming is concerned, than burning hydrocarbons such as fossil fuels. However, hydrogen is not abundant in a useful form and must be produced by using energy. It is therefore more of an energy store than an energy source, and the methods of producing the energy for producing the hydrogen may be harmful to the environment in themselves.
What are some advantages of nuclear?
Cheaper, More energy than fossil fuel, Better for the air
Is solar power a better source than fossil fuel oil?
Only during the day!
How is a maglev car better than a fossil fuel car?
well there safer and more fuel effeciant and have less drag and friction
Why will there be less pollution if hydrogen is burned to a fuel?
Hydrogen combustion produces water vapor as the main byproduct, which is cleaner than the pollutants emitted from burning fossil fuels like gasoline or diesel. This results in less pollution being released into the atmosphere when hydrogen is used as fuel.
What fossil fuel produces more carbon dioxide than any other fossil fuel?
oil
Why is solar power better than fossil fuels?
Solar power is better than fossil fuels for several reasons. Solar power is a renewable energy source that produces no greenhouse gas emissions during operation, unlike fossil fuels which contribute to air pollution and climate change. Additionally, solar power has a lower environmental impact in terms of water usage and land degradation compared to fossil fuel extraction and combustion.
Why is LPG considered a better fuel than coal for cooking purposes?
because coal is a fossil fuel and non-renewable one where as LPG is a renewable one
Why is hydroelectric source of energy better than fuels for generating electrical energy?
hydroelectric energy is free to the fuel fossil
