Originally at the end, away from the stalk. Nowadays you can get seedless bananas iirc, through selective breeding.

All the fruit etc. we eat have been bred to be pretty different to their natural state.

Yeah I figured the ones we eat were just bred without them, but even with lots of seedless fruits, I still see seeded versions (watermelon, grapes, etc).

I've had bananas with seeds in, been a few years tho. There are lots of varieties of bananas but you only see 1-2 in the supermarkets.

Guys, guys, let's stop nitting up the thread and take the zombie survival quiz instead. I got 41%. Too heroic, you know.

Final velocity relative to what?

[/ QUOTE ]

0m/s relative to any other object near the earths surface also traveling at 100m/s in the same direction at that instant of time.

[/ QUOTE ]

Not to be too nitty (that is to say, just for the sake of being a supernit), but since the Earth is a sphere, nearly every object traveling in the same direction as the object in question (toward the center of the earth) at 100m/s is going to be moving relative to the original object.

Damn. Making statements that people can't nit into oblivion is tough. I'm so glad I was never so masochistic as to become a middle school teacher.

That's it! Detention and term papers for the lot of you. And that's Mr. [censored] to you, buddy.

I got an 86, the velocity question was worded fraily ghey, I first clicked 0, becuase it said WHAT IS ITS FINAL VELOCITY, which to me would be 0 after it sinks, but then i figured there would be no way such a question would be no the test, and answered the right one.

[Case Closed]

Wow, 26 questions. [censored] no.

[blackize]

The question is not defined as well as it could be, but you're a moron if you picked zero.
