| | Cucumber - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The cucumber is the edible fruit of the cucumber plant Cucumis sativus, which belongs to the gourd family Cucurbitaceae, as do melons and squash. | | | Thousands of hives of bees are annually carried to cucumber fields just before bloom for the purpose. | | | More than 90% of the cucumber consists of water, and it is the cooling effect of the water in the cucumbers on eyes, together with increased humidity, that reduces the swelling. |

| | Although the dried and smoked skin of the sea cucumber is regarded as an aphrodisiac and delicacy in Asia, trepang or beche-de-mer, as it is called, is farmed on a sustainable, cottage-industry basis only. | | | Feeding is a full-time occupation, and even at a burrowing speed of 2-3cm an hour, the sea cucumber still manages to digest, filter and empty some 45kg of seabed a year. | | | Fortunately for the sea cucumber its attackers are few and far between, and its internal organs are a highly poisonous and effective deterrent to most predators. |
