Re: apple seeds
Hi,
The number of seeds in an apple may vary between trees and between fruit depending on a number of factors. I do not think you can answer the question you asked definitively. See the resources below:

Re: apple seeds
Hi plarita,
This is an easy enough experiment to do! You could purchase 20 of each type of apple, and count the number of seeds in each.
Good luck with your project!
