Answer:
Maize is actually a fruit in which the fruit wall and seed coat are fused together to form a protective layer, therefore, we call such fruits as grain or caryopsis.
In maize, the seeds are called as kernels as it is enclosed in a husk. The kernel or maize grain has a pericarph of the fruit fused with the seed coat due to which it is botanically a fruit and not a seed
Hope this will help you!!
