There is a wide variety of fruits to choose from but most of us just eat a few different kinds in our lifetime. It is an adventure to try different types of fruits and different species of fruits.

There is no wrong answer in #4, so give yourself an extra point. The answer options just got entered incorrectly.
I have fruit very much but it seems that I do not know it well … I only have five correct answers
I like them too but don’t often think about what they really are so that is a good score.
That was a fun quiz, and I got 6/10. But question #4 is wrong: both cherries and plums belong to the Rosaceae family, or rose family. Berries do not.
I made a few mistakes and some of these facts really surprised me.
