Their seeds are embedded in the flesh of the fruit. Peaches and plums are drupes. Drupes have one seed enclosed in a hard case surrounded by flesh. Apples and pears are pomes. Pomes have several seeds enclosed in a core surrounded by flesh. Objectives: Different kinds of plants form different amounts of seeds. Some plants form only a few seeds while others form many seeds.
