[Angel-Eyes]

the tomato is a fruit because it has seeds.

potato is a vegtable



the scientific name for fruit is angiosperm, from the greek meaning that its covered

the scientific name for a potato is gymnosperm, from the greek meaning that its naked.


angisperms have seeds that are covered by some kind of food or somthing.

[Master_Jay]

potato is a veg !
tomato is a fruit !
Tomato: A widely cultivated South American plant having edible, fleshy, usually red fruit...

Potato: A South American plant widely cultivated for its starchy edible tubers...

Those definitions were from my notes... The Tomato is a fruit because of the fact that it has seeds, vegetables doesn't have seeds... - None that I can think of :biggrin:...

Although the tomato isn't grown from a tree doesn't mean that its a vegetable. But many people consider the Tomato a vegetable because of the fact of how it is eaten.

The tomato isn't eaten like other fruits such as an apple (Tomato isn't held in the hand and you just bite it). -I for one think thats sick...

Tomato = Fruit
Potato = Vegetable

[m0u5y]

i said before you say something... do research!
http://encyclopedia.com/searchpool.asp?target=potato
freakken look! its a tuber!a root! a root is part of the plant but not necessarily a vegetable. >c you guys are scaring me.
vegetables dont have seeds.. duh! cuz veggies are leaves, and plant stems. things like carrots are "considered"veggies but they are roots as well. a fruit is a fruit, cus its a fruit. a fruit is the product of the pollination of a flower. the purpose of a fruit is to allow animals to eat the fruit thus the seeds so that they can be spread around. less competition for resources.
