B Correct answer
Explanation

Botanically, almonds are not nuts - they are seeds (specifically, drupes). The almond fruit is a drupe with a fleshy exterior and a hard shell containing the seed (what we commonly call an almond). True nuts include acorns, chestnuts, and hazelnuts, which have a different botanical structure.
