1. Which of these fruits grows on a tree?

Explanation

Apple is the correct answer because it is a fruit that grows on a tree. Apple trees produce apples as their fruit, which can be harvested when they are ripe. Strawberries, cantaloupes, and watermelons, on the other hand, do not grow on trees. Strawberries are small fruits that grow on low-lying plants, cantaloupes grow on vines close to the ground, and watermelons also grow on vines that spread along the ground.

This process is commonly observed in apples, making them the fruit that turns brown when cut.
