Summary

DescriptionAdansonia digitata - baobab seeds.jpg	Detail of seeds from the fruit of the Adansonia digitata baobab, Senegal. Unusually, the chunky whitish fruit pulp is very dry, but when soaked and rinsed with water the dry pulp quickly dissolves to expose the dark brown seeds. Size compared to West Africa CFA coins. Measured at 1.2 cm - 1.3 cm in length. Brown in color overall, any white patches still visible are remnants of undissolved pulp.

This image has currency in it to indicate scale.

Using coins for scale is discouraged as it will require people unfamiliar with them to look up the dimensions or guess, both of which defeat the purpose of the object in the first place. Coins can also reinforce a geographical bias, and some coins' designs are copyrighted.

Ideally, a photograph should include a ruler with the subject (example) or an added scale marking. SI ("metric") units are the most commonly used worldwide (see meter and centimeter).
