Also called fleshy fruits or wet fruits, this is the opposite of dry fruits. These are fruits whose fleshy skin retains a lot of water even after ripening. Examples include tomatoes, peaches, persimmons, and mandarin oranges. In a broader sense, it also includes pears, apples, and melons. Depending on the number of carpels and the differentiation of the skin, fruits can be further divided into berries, drupes (stone fruits), citrus fruits, pome fruits, and melon fruits.
