What does DRUPEL mean in Scrabble?
noun
botany
One of the tiny juicy fruit units that cluster together to form a raspberry or blackberry.
Each rounded bead on a raspberry is a drupel, a miniature fruit with its own skin, flesh and seed. Hundreds of them are packed around a central core, which is why a berry falls apart into crumbs when it is picked too roughly. Botanists treat these units as small drupes, and drupel is a shorter, less common variant of drupelet.
