How do fruit fly embryos and frog embryos differ from each other more than frog embryos and human embryos?

The development of a fruit fly is egg to embyro and then through three larval stages before it pupates and develops into an adult. A larva is an undeveloped worm like eating machine that in no way resembles the adult. The development of frogs varies by species but the most well known cycle is egg to embryo to fetus which hatches as a tadpole and subsequently metamorphoses into a young frog resembling an adult. While a good portion of a frog's development occurs after the egg has hatched the complexity of a tadpole as compared to a fruit fly larva is considerable. The development of a human embryo occurs entirely in the mother's womb with the resulting offspring born resembling the parents. Since both the frog and the human are vertebrates their developmental biology is significantly closer than either would be to a fruit fly.

What is the difference between granadilla and passion fruit?

Maybe, depending on where you are. Granadillas are fruits of the plant Passiflora ligularis. In most places, "passion fruit" is used to refer to fruits of the (closely related) plant Passiflora edulis. However, in Australia and most of Africa, Passiflora ligularis fruits are also called "passionfruit".There are several hundred species of Passiflora (Latin for "Passion flower'), and many of them have edible fruit, so what's locally and logically referred to as "passion fruit" might come from any number of different species.
