A mango is classified as a drupe because it has a fleshy outer layer surrounding a hard pit or stone that contains the seed. This structure is characteristic of drupes, which typically have three layers: the exocarp (skin), mesocarp (flesh), and endocarp (hard shell around the seed). Drupes develop from a single ovary and are often sweet and juicy, making mangoes a prime example of this fruit category.
