Answer:

Dried fruit is fruit from which the majority of the original water content has been removed either naturally, through sun drying, or through the use of specialized dryers or dehydrators. Dried fruit has a long tradition of use dating back to the fourth millennium BC in Mesopotamia, and is prized because of its sweet taste, nutritive value,[1] and long shelf life.

Explanation:

Fruit is a seed-bearing structure in flowering plants formed from the ovary after flowering. Fruits are the means by which angiosperms disseminate seeds.

Fleshy fruits: It refers to fruits that produce plentiful flesh and are highly desirable as edible produce for both humans and other species. Nature intended many fleshy fruits to be eaten by animals, to aid dispersion of the seeds. Fleshy fruits include berries, certain vegetables such as eggplants, cucumbers, tomatoes, etc.

Dried fruit: It is fruit from which the majority of the original water content has been removed either naturally, through sun drying, or through the use of specialized dryers or dehydrators. Types of dry fruits include raisins, dates, prunes, figs, apricots,  etc.
