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.

Answer:
The greatest changes to the path and strength of the Gulf Stream might be caused by an increase in the volume of river water that flows into the Gulf of Mexico (Option B)
Explanation:
The North Atlantic current or Gulf Stream carries warm water from the Gulf of Mexico forward Europe, providing a relative template clime in most of the European occident.
Ocean streams are sensitive to the amount of freshwater available on the surface. An increase in overflow and precipitation over the ocean could slow or revert the north Atlantic current, blocking warm water flow to Europe.
The deposition of freshwater could cause a temporal deceleration or total collapse of the North Atlantic Current, and this interruption might lead to very cold periods in the North Atlantic.
Answer: d. Predators avoid prey that are in their prime in order to maintain a high reproductive rate in the prey population, and hence 'grow' prey for the future.
Explanation:
A predator can be define as an organism superior and strong enough to kill inferior and weaker organism. This organism kill other organism to obtain it as food. A prey is an organism which is weak and cannot defend itself from the attack of the superior organism.
d. is the correct option. This is because the predators do not bother about the age and strength of the prey. They attack over them whether the prey is weak , young, prime, or old and try to obtain it as food.
