Scientificaly what is the difference between a fruit and a vegatable?

fruits have seeds?

But vegetables are any part of the plant which we can used as etables

Answer 3

A fruit is the usually succulent part derived from the ovary wall (pericarp) of a flower.

Vegetable definition is less scientific. It is the edible (human defined) part of a plant. Eg , potato is a swollen stolon tip, carrot is a swollen root.

Answer 5

A fruit contains seeds and is usually the enlarged ovary.  However, in some cases (like apples), there are accessory fruits which are actually the receptacle, not the ovary.

Vegetables are the vegetative (non-reproductive) organs of plants:  roots (like carrots), stems (like celery), and leaves (like lettuce).

Answer 6

fruits grow on trees and vegetables from the ground?
