Fruit with a Dry Seed



Fruits with dry seeds have a "seedpod" and can be opened to expose seeds or do not expose their seeds. The photo is tamarind, and I exposed a bit of the "seed". The tamarind has a shell that has to be broken, so it is a dry seed. Legumes are another example - peas, beans, peanuts.
