A fleshy seed is a seed that is surrounded by a fleshy, nutrient-rich structure called an aril or sarcotesta. The fleshy part helps attract animals that will eat the fruit and disperse the seeds through their droppings. Examples of plants with fleshy seeds include tomatoes, apples, and peaches.
The fleshy part of the seed is called the endosperm. It is a tissue inside the seed that provides nutrients for the developing plant embryo.
The fleshy structure surrounding the seed in an angiosperm is called a fruit. Fruits are formed from the ovary of the flower after fertilization and serve to protect the developing seeds and aid in dispersal. They come in various forms and can be fleshy or dry.
The fleshy outer covering of a yew seed is called an aril. It is red and sweet in taste, serving as a means of attracting birds to eat the seed and aid in dispersal. However, the seed inside the aril is toxic to humans and many other animals.
Yes it is. As a drupe is a plant that has fleshy fruit surrounding a stone that covers a seed. This description exactly fits the almond.
Yew seeds are primarily spread by birds and small mammals that eat the fleshy coating of the seed and deposit the undigested seed elsewhere. Wind can also help disperse yew seeds over short distances.

The fleshy pulp around some seeds inhibits the seed from sprouting prematurely. When the pulp is removed by rotting or chemical application, the seed will sprout.
Stone, pit, or seed
I think its the hard part, not the fleshy part whicch is only to attract animals which then digest and disperse the seed.
The fleshy false fruit of a yew is called an aril. Unlike true fruits, which develop from the ovary of a flower, an aril develops from the tissue surrounding the ovule. In yews, the aril is typically red and fleshy, surrounding a hard seed, and is attractive to birds, which helps in seed dispersal.
Botanically speaking - many grains fit this category.

Botanically, many grains and grasses are considered a fruit - as they are seed bearing.
They are fruit as they are a fleshy seed-bearing body that develops from a flower.
The false fruit in which the inflorescence's stalk becomes fleshy is called a "pome." In pomes, such as apples and pears, the fleshy part is derived from the receptacle or floral tube rather than the ovary itself. This adaptation helps in seed dispersal, as the fleshy part attracts animals that consume the fruit.
