Answers:
This is a really complicated question in reality!. It seems to be that a banana can be classified as an herb, or a fruit depending on what category you are using!. The actual banana plant is not a tree because it lacks woody tissue, so it is an herb!. However the banana is still a fruit because it contains seeds and grows from the ovary of the flower!. For this same reason, a tomato is also a fruit!.

To make matters even more complicated, some people say bananas can also be classified as berries!.

It's a fruit, for it has seeds!. It's actually classified as a berry because it has multiple seeds, and any fruit that has multiple seeds on the inside is a berry!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
