Question

is a cucumber and tomatoe a fruit or vegetable?

Answer 1

They are both fruits.

Answer 2

One commonly accepted criteria is that if it has seeds it's a fruit, otherwise it's a vegetable. So, a tomato and a cucumber would qualify as fruits. However, we often associate fruits with sweetness so that's why it's hard to think of them as fruits.

Answer 3

cucumber is a vegetable and a tomato is a fruit.

Answer 4

Both are technically fruits because they have seeds. Most people would call them vegetables though, because they are more sour (and in my opinion worse) than typical fruits, like apples and bananas.

Answer 5

Botanically speaking they are fruits, but they are part of a class of fruits that we refer to as vegetables
