are these fruits or vegies?; cucumbers, pumpkin, and eggplant?

Answer 1

If they contain seeds then they are clssed as fruits, tomatoes are fruits, because they contain seeds.

Answer 2

All 3 of them are both fruits and vegetables. A fruit is the ripened, seed-bearing ovary of a flowering plant, which cucumbers, pumpkins, and eggplants are. The word "vegetable" doesn't have a scientific or botanical definition, it's just a word that is arbitrarily used to describe some of the plants that people eat. Since people say that cucumbers, pumpkins, and eggplants are vegetables, they're vegetables. Since "vegetable" doesn't have a specific definition, there's no reason that something can't be both a fruit and a vegetable at the same time.

Answer 3

These are all fruits as they emerge on the plants from their flowers just like tomatoes are a fruit too.

Answer 4

all are veggies
if they were fruits because seeds are on the inside, how do you explain strawberries?
if it's because they emerge from flowers, then how do you explain a pepper?
veggies are usually used in savoury dishes, fruits in sweet dishes.
Pumpkin, of course, is a squash family veg, which can be used in pie, but then so can sweet potatoes.....

Answer 5

It all depends on your definition of fruit and vegetable

They are all FRUITS of their respective plants, but have the nutrients that common in vegetables, and are usually counted as such.
