Description: he strawberry is a member of the Rosaceae family, the same as the common rose. This image from a scanning electron microscope clearly reveals the seeds-and hairlike strands-on the berry’s surface. Strawberries are known as accessory fruits because they are not derived exclusively from the plant’s ovaries-the seeds are the actual “fruit.” Strawberries have plenty of health benefits when consumed, but they can also help with hygiene. A crushed strawberry mixed with baking soda can whiten teeth, thanks to the stain-fighting effects of the fruit’s malic acid.
