Question

give me few lines on peanut​

Answer 1

The peanut plant flowers above ground, then develops its pods underground.

Because of this, peanuts are often called groundnuts.

Other names include goobers, pinders, arachides (French/Italian), and maní (Spanish).

This strange legume yields shell-covered pods (fruits) that contain one or more seeds.

A nut is a hard shelled fruit that comes from a plant whose fruit does not open to release its seed.

A nut is a composite of the fruit and seed, some examples of true nuts are: acorns, beechnuts, chestnuts and hazelnuts.

So despite the name, the plant is not a nut in the biological sense, but a legume.

Peanuts grow by starting out as an above ground flower that, due to its heavy weight, bends towards the ground.

The flower eventually burrows underground, which is where the peanut actually matures.
