THE STRAWBERRY lisa 
Some berries are quite white inside; some are pink; 
some have a pink ring outside and a pink center. 
Describe yours. 
9, Are there any seeds inside the berry? Where are 
all the seeds to be found? 
How are the hull and stem attached ? 
Cross Section 
10. Cut across section. Notice the pink ring around the 
outside. Describe the inside of the berry. 
11. Take another strawberry and cut off its tip; above 
this cut a second slice; then a third, and if you 
can a fourth. Lay these in a row one by one, in 
the same order as you cut them off. Now notice 
how the color zone changes in each section. The 
section at the tip is quite pink. What are the 
others like ? 
12. Cut another strawberry vertically. Can you dis- 
cover anything new that you did not notice with 
the first section? If you look closely you will 
see some fine /ines running from the center to the 
outside. How do these run, straight or slanting ? 
How do these slant? (Most children answer this 
question wrong.)
