What do you call the little seed bumps that make up raspberrys and blackberrys?

The whole berries are made up of a bunch of little round bumps with seeds in the middle. What are they called? Just curious....

This is cut and pasted from the source listed below it:

The actual "fruits" (mature ovaries) are achenes or drupelets, which compose the compound fruit types we call aggregates, hips, and accessories .
