I am making a fact sheet for different types of vegetables and fruits; each type of fruit has varieties -- how can one variety bedistinguished from another? I mean the physical characteristics like how can you tell an alphanso mango from another type of mango.

Most answers are good but I think you need more help then you are geting it.
"Different varieties of fruits and vegetables"
Apple is simple Red is red in color and Golden is golden or Yellow. By the way, there is a green apple also. To add to the confusion all of these on the tree start out as green (and they are green in color if harvest very, very early before the color shows up.
Again with apple, Delicious apple taste the same, just deferent color, now Mc or McIntosh has distinctly defferent taste. By the way Mc and Delicious have different shape.
There must be at least 10 other varieties sold in my area in USA, universities in USA has whole department dedicated to it.
"How can you differentiate?"
I am not sure, where you are from, in USA they are packaged or sold in bulk beans, both are well marked. If you are in any other place where this is not true you can ask the seller, the person knows most of the time what it is that they are selling. Once in a while they would say do not know, buy some try some, take a picture, color photo, name it yourself and before you use up the last one write down, exactly what you see and name it or Number it.
Vegetables
As for Example peas and sweet peas.
One is sweeter then the other. Sweet is also slightly smallar.
"How can you tell an alphanso mango from another type of mango".
Shape smell and taste/flavour.
Finally it all boils down to experience time make people wiser sharper and smatter, and most of all humble I am 64 years old feel like 76 years, if I live to be hundred I will not know all that is to know or all I want or like to know.
No Q? is dumb, only people like me give dumb answers.

There are associations for growers of each kind of fruit and vegetable. Trust me they want you to know the difference. Just look them up on the web and either e-mail or write for any and all info they can send you. they will and it's free. I do it at school for my students.

I must not understand your question because this seems obvious. You used an example where color is the obvious answer. The other possible ways include size, shape, taste, smell, and maybe some others.
