Question

why is banana called a berry?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Despite its name, the strawberry isn't a true berry. Neither is the raspberry or the blackberry. But the banana, it turns out, is a berry, scientifically speaking, as are eggplants, grapes and oranges. ... In order to be considered a berry, a fruit must develop from a flower that has one ovary.

True berriesare simple fruits stemming from one flower with one ovary and typically have several seeds. ... But no, they're actually considered a berry, too—with one, giant seed. So, bananas areberries and raspberries aren't.
