Whats the differnce between a fruit and vegetable?

You are quite right, however the grapes are the fruit of the vine and are found above ground, hence fruit.

that do u tell me what is the main difference between fruit & vegatable.

thnx for posting me ur responce. But grapes is a climber not tree.

but vegitable contain seeds. thnx for posting me ur response.

actually thats right the only vegetable that has seeds is the tomato. Which is commonly mistaken as a fruit for that reason.

yes, ur right but i am confuge what is the difference.

tell me why

Fruit grows on a tree. Vegetables are grown from the ground. This is what I have always been told.

for those who are saying that no thats not right because what about corn? corn doesnt have seeds "in it". Corn is the seed. This is what one person says.Shes taught plant science to elementary schools. She says people ask this all the time. "The answer depends on who you are: a scientist? a greengrocer? I'll give you the botanist's answer. A fruit is the ripened (swollen) ovary of a flower.The ovary ripens when the ovules inside have been fertilized. Seeds of flowering plants always are found inside fruits." Bontanists generally dont use the word vegetable to mean a plant or even a plant part. The basic parts are roots, stems, leaves flowers/ fruit/ seeds. Vegetable is a grocery store term: Tomatoes are called vegetables to distinguish them from the sweeter fruits like peachers. Carrots are called vegetables but the part we eat is of course a root. In horticulture people talk about growing "flowers and vegetables" but that doesnt really make sense: tomatoes and peppers are flowering plants!
