Correct answer
Explanation
Chinese gooseberries are native to China, but the fruit was commercially developed and renamed 'kiwifruit' in New Zealand. The original Chinese name was yang tao, and when New Zealand growers began exporting them, they marketed them as 'Chinese gooseberries' before rebranding to kiwifruit in the 1960s.
