Tomatoes, beans, cucumbers, and corn are all types of plants, but they have different classifications. Specifically:
• Tomato: Fruit (botanically, it’s a fruit but often used as a vegetable in culinary contexts).
• Beans: Legumes (often considered vegetables in culinary contexts).
• Cucumbers: Fruit (botanically, it’s a fruit but used as a vegetable).
• Corn: Grain (the part we consume is the kernel, but botanically, it’s a type of grain).
