An avocado is a fruit that grows on the avocado tree, scientifically known as Persea americana. It has a green-skinned, fleshy body that may be pear-shaped, egg-shaped, or spherical, depending on the variety.

Avocados are known for their creamy texture and nutty flavor. They are often used in culinary dishes like guacamole, salads, sandwiches, and smoothies due to their rich taste and nutritional value.
