What are tomatoes? fruit vegetables flowers roots?
Zigmanuir [339]

The confusion about 'fruit' and 'vegetable' arises because of the differences in usage between scientists and cooks. Scientifically speaking, a tomato is definitely a fruit. True fruits are developed from the ovary in the base of the flower, and contain the seeds of the plant (though cultivated forms may be seedless). Blueberries, raspberries, and oranges are true fruits, and so are many kinds of nut. Some plants have a soft part which supports the seeds and is also called a 'fruit', though it is not developed from the ovary: the strawberry is an example.

As far as cooking is concerned, some things which are strictly fruits, such as tomatoes orbean pods, may be called 'vegetables' because they are used in savoury rather than sweet cooking. The term 'vegetable' is more generally used of other edible parts of plants, such as cabbage leaves, celery stalks, and potato tubers, which are not strictly the fruit of the plant from which they come. Occasionally the term 'fruit' may be used to refer to a part of a plant which is not a fruit, but which is used in sweet cooking: rhubarb, for example.

So, the answer to the question is that a tomato is technically the fruit of the tomato plant, but it's used as a vegetable in cooking.


Hope this helps :)

Why does diversity increase as height above land increases​
wolverine [178]

Biodiversity rises with altitude initially before falling with height beyond that. Up until it reaches a diversity peak at about 1 300 to 1 800 m.

  • The biodiversity increases at higher geographical locations because There are more hiding locations. They are better for crop growth. They frequently include more than one kind of habitat.
  • As latitude or altitude change, so does biodiversity. As we descend from high to low elevations, the diversity increases (i.e., from poles to equator).
  • While the environment is harsh and plants have a brief growing season in the temperate region, tropical rain forests provide year-round growth-friendly circumstances.
  • This enables the emergence and expansion of several species. On a mountain, there is an initial increase in species diversity after which there is a decline in species variety as you go up in elevation.
  • At higher elevations, temperature drops and seasonal variations increase, which significantly diminishes.
