FRUITS
 Introduction
• fruit is a structure of a plant that contains its
seeds.
• fruit normally means the fleshy seed-
associated structures of certain plants that are
sweet and edible in the raw state, such as
apples, oranges, grapes, strawberries, and
bananas.
Oranges

• It is a small flowering tree growing to about 10

m tall with evergreen leaves, which are
arranged alternately, of ovate shape with
crenulate margins and 4–10 cm long.
• The orange fruit is a hesperidium, a type of

 Banana

plants of the genus Musa and for the fruit
they produce. Bananas come in a variety of
sizes and colors when ripe, including yellow,
purple, and red.
 Conclusion
• Fruits (in either sense of the word) are the means by
which many plants disseminate seeds. Most edible
fruits, in particular, were evolved by plants in order
to exploit animals as a means for seeds dispersal;
and many animals (including humans to some
extent) have become dependent on fruits as a
source of food. Fruits account for a substantial
fraction of world's agricultural output, and some
(such as the apple and the pomegranate) have
acquired extensive cultural and symbolic meanings.
