A pip, also known as a seed, is the small, typically hard, and often oval-shaped structure found within the fruit's core or flesh. Pips contain the embryonic plant and are responsible for the reproduction and propagation of the plant species. They are surrounded by the fruit's flesh, which provides nourishment and protection for the seed. Pips vary in size, shape, and number depending on the fruit variety. While some fruits, like apples and pears, have multiple pips, others, like cherries and plums, contain a single large pit or stone. In some cases, pips are consumed along with the fruit, while in others, they are discarded before consumption.
