Answer:
Apologies to Felix87, who in answering this question stated "its a fruit." A strawberry is NOT a fruit. A true fruit has to be developed from the ovary in the base of the flower and contain the seeds of the plant. A strawberry is called a "false fruit" because it forms from the hypanthium, which holds the ovaries.
