Seeds and fruit and how they travel, sentence 4

Cartoons show a tomato as a vegetable and a banana full of big seeds; to a scientist a fruit is the part that grows from the flower and holds the seeds, so a tomato is a fruit, and a shop banana has only tiny dots instead of real seeds.

Who acts: Cartoons, fruit, part, tomato, shop banana · What happens: show, be, grow, hold, have · To what, where: tomato, part, seeds, fruit, tiny dots

This is a sentence of the lesson «Seeds and fruit and how they travel» of the biology course of Mova's primary school.
