4 vegetables that you eat different parts of or stages of the plant in its life cycle?

Answer 1

Ohhh - good question. I'll add these that haven't been mentioned:

1) Beets/chard. You can eat both the root (beet) and the leaves (swiss chard).

Actually you could answer this from just one genus, Brassica. Brassica rapa: 1) broccoli and 2)cauliflower (flowers and stems), 2) Turnip (root), turnip greens (leaves), 3) Cabbage (leaves), Brassica hirta: 4) mustard seeds (reproductive organ)

Saffron - the styles (part of the pistil) of Crocus sativus

Answer 2

4 Stages Of Plant Life Cycle

Answer 3

All fruits are fresh vegetables. A "vegetable" is a plant, any part of which is employed for food.

Answer 4

In the superstore, fruits are usually chosen far too soon. Some are rocks, many are wrong. Some of the fresh vegetables are right (zucchini, onions, garlic, lettuce, greens, and a few others) so I'd have to go with vegetables.

Answer 5

Broccoli...bud; artichoke...flower; rhubarb..vegetative portion (botanically it is a vegetable); corn..seed. If you don't like rhubarb as a type of vegetable then substitute beet as a vegetative stage. Oh, and another possibility there is spinach.

I wanted to stick tomato in there as a fruiting body, but botanically it is a fruit, and you asked about vegetables.

Answer 6

Onions - eat the green leaves when the plants are young; eat the bulb when it's older.

Pumpkins -- eat the fruit in pumpkin pies; eat the toasted seeds.

Squash -- eat the blossoms dipped in batter and deep fried; eat the fruit later.

Radishes -- eat the sprouted seeds in salads; eat the radish roots later.

Answer 7

Lettuce: You are eating leaves
Broccoli: You are eating flowers
Corn: You are eating seeds
Asparagus: You are eating stems
