A banana (the yellow thing you peel and eat) is undoubtedly a fruit (containing the seeds of the plant), though since commercially grown banana plants are sterile, the seeds are reduced to little specks. However, the banana plant, though it is called a 'banana-tree' in popular usage, is technically regarded as a herbaceous plant (or 'herb'), not a tree, because the stem does not contain true woody tissue.

How bout them apples????

Sorry Magpie for interrupting

So here is a new one: Name the first movie ever made in Hollwood

Sysiphus · 17-03-2005 4:36am

Well its claimed the Edison made the first moving picture 1910 "Frankenstein", but are you asking about "Hollywood" as the Metro, Golwyn, Myer Hollywood, ie where does / when "hollywood" start??

Okay I don't really understand what you mean so i'll just tell you the answer, the first ever movie that was made in Hollywood was "In Old California" made by D.W. Griffith in 1910. It is about a spanish maiden's liason with a future Governer of California.

So, because of the confusion with the last question, I'll ask a new question, What is the name of Africa's largest lake and Australia's smallest mainland state?
