Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Large, juicy fruits with thick rinds and many seeds, in the gourd family: cantaloupe, casaba, honeydew, Crenshaw, Persian & watermelon.
Detailed explanation-2: -All of the melons are vine-forming annuals that produce what is known by botanists as a “pepo”-actually a type of berry, rather than a true fruit. A pepo has a thick rind with a fleshy interior, housing seeds at its centre. Other plants that produce pepos include bananas, squashes, blueberries, and cranberries.
