What is the lenght and width of the apple tree?
I think it would be save to say all apples have different shapes and sizes. Also it would depend on the kind of apples you have. Some apples can be grown at whatever size you won't if you pick them when they are small than thats the size they are going to stay at. If you keep your apples growing for a long time and they start to get a bit soft you probably will want to pick them otherwise they will start to get mushy and over ripe.

No, apples are not blue. They can be if you color them with a blue marker. Or for that matter they can be any color you want! My little sister use to draw faces on them and give them names. I'm pretty sure the apple peels will still be safe to eat if they have marker on them since most markers today are nontoxic. Have fun coloring your apples blue!

How long does it takes for an apple seed to turn into an apple tree?
This is a difficult one. If you grow a tree from a seed you do not know whether the resulting fruit will be worth eating or cooking. There is of course a thousand to one chance you could find a wothwhile new variety. To answer the question the minute the seed germinates it is a tree how long it takes to bear fruit depends on too many variables to give an exact answer. Edit: Based on the size of the trees that I have bought, (and the one tree that I had that sprouted from seed), I would estimate between five and ten years from seed to new apples. However, some seeds won't sprout at all, because the hybridization of varieties sometimes produces sterile seeds. Also, apple seeds need a long period of very cold weather, like a "winter", usually freezing, or very close to it, before they will sprout. There are occasional good exceptions. Long story shortened: my father had an apple sapling in his vegetable garden which had sprouted ("volunteered") from seed in his composted table scraps. We transplanted the tree to my new home, and enjoyed very large, juicy Delicious (variety) apples for about fifteen years, until we moved. I wish I had cuttings from that tree to work with now!

Are apples fruits or vegetables?
An apple is both a fruit and a vegetable. By definition, a vegetable is any plant whose fruit, seeds, roots, tubers, bulbs, stems, leaves, or flower parts are used as food, as the tomato, bean, beet, potato, onion, asparagus, spinach, or cauliflower. And a fruit is defined as, the developed ovary of a seed plant with its contents and accessory parts, as the pea pod, nut, tomato, or pineapple.
Thus, apples, pea pods, and tomatoes are both a fruit and a vegetable. However, onions, potatoes, and beets, are just vegetables.

Apples are actually Dicots. Their leaves have net-like venation, their flowers have petals and sepals in multiples of 4 or 5 (in this case 5) and they have five carpels (that is why when you cut an apple in half it makes a star shape, those are the five seed containing carpels). The apple seed has two cotyledons, not just one.
Does a green apple rot faster than a red apple?
I actually did an expirament on this topic. Red apples rot faster then green apples. This is due to the acidity in the green apple that keeps the green apple fresher. If you cut a green apple and a red apple in half, you will find that the red apple will start to brown slightly before the green apple.
