Fruit
From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fruit is a part of a tree or bush that contains seeds. It is often eaten as a food. For plants, fruits are used so that the plant can make new plants. When the fruit breaks apart, the seeds can get into dirt and start growing.
Most fruits we eat contain a lot of water. They contain natural sugar. They have a large amount of dietary fiber at the peel, seeds, and fibrous parts. All fruits contain iron, and they are very low in protein and fat content.
Sometimes "to bear fruit" also means "to produce results".
"Fruit" (or "rotten fruit") can also sometimes be slang for "a homosexual".
