A potato is not a fruit because it is classified as a tuber, which is a type of underground stem that stores nutrients. Fruits, on the other hand, develop from the flowering part of a plant and contain seeds. While both fruits and tubers come from plants, their biological functions and structures are different, with fruits primarily serving to disperse seeds. Thus, the potato's growth and reproductive role align it more with vegetables than with fruits.
