Drupelet

Description

A drupelet refers to a small individual fruit or a small part of a compound fruit, typically found in fruits such as blackberries, raspberries, and strawberries. It is a miniature version of a drupe, which is a type of fruit consisting of an outer skin, a fleshy middle layer, and a hard inner seed.

Examples:

• Blackberries are composed of multiple drupelets that form a cluster on the fruit's surface.
• Raspberries are made up of several drupelets fused together, creating a juicy and tart taste.
• If you look closely at a strawberry, you'll notice numerous tiny drupelets spread across its surface.
