Answer 1

So imagine you have a European outlet and an American outlet. Both outlets work wonderfully with their respective pieces. This is how watermelon reproduction is for simplicities sake. You have American watermelon and European ones. Now if you mix them up it still makes a watermelon. But this new watermelon has a European outlet and an American plug. This means you can eat the watermelon but it can’t conduct electricity. Thus there are no seeds. The two types of watermelons are called diploid and tetroid. When breeded together they make a water melon, but it can’t make seeds cause the outlet doesn’t connect.
