Question: Information: - Cucurbita (Latin for gourd) is a genus of herbaceous vines in the gourd family, Cucurbitaceae, also known as cucurbits, native to the Andes and Mesoamerica. Five species are grown worldwide for their edible fruit, variously known as squash, pumpkin, or gourd depending on species, variety, and local parlance, and for their seeds. First cultivated in the Americas before being brought to Europe by returning explorers after their discovery of the New World, plants in the genus "Cucurbita" are important sources of human food and oil. Other kinds of gourd, also called bottle-gourds, are native to Africa and belong to the genus "Lagenaria", which is in the same family and subfamily as "Cucurbita" but in a different tribe. These other gourds are used as utensils or vessels, and their young fruits are eaten much like those of Cucurbita species. - Australia, officially the Commonwealth of Australia, is a country comprising the mainland of the Australian continent, the island of Tasmania and numerous smaller islands. It is the world's sixth-largest country by total area. The neighbouring countries are Papua New Guinea, Indonesia and East Timor to the north; the Solomon Islands and Vanuatu to the north-east; and New Zealand to the south-east. Australia's capital is Canberra, and its largest urban area is Sydney. - Cucurbita pepo is a cultivated plant of the genus "Cucurbita". It yields varieties of winter squash and pumpkin, but the most widespread varieties belong to "Cucurbita pepo" subsp. "pepo", called summer squash. - Winter squash is an annual fruit representing several squash species within the genus "Cucurbita". It differs from summer squash in that it is harvested and eaten in the mature fruit stage when the seeds within have matured fully and the skin has hardened into a tough rind. At this stage, most varieties of this fruit can be stored for use during the winter. Winter squash is generally cooked before being eaten and the skin or rind is not usually eaten as it is with summer squash. - The term cultivar is, most commonly, referring to an assemblage of plants selected for desirable characteristics that are maintained during propagation. More generally, "cultivar" refers to the most basic classification category of cultivated plants governed by the ICNCP. Most cultivars have arisen in cultivation, but a few are special selections from the wild. - New Zealand is an island nation in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. The country geographically comprises two main landmassesthat of the North Island, or Te Ika-a-Mui, and the South Island, or Te Waipounamuand numerous smaller islands. New Zealand is situated some east of Australia across the Tasman Sea and roughly south of the Pacific island areas of New Caledonia, Fiji, and Tonga. Because of its remoteness, it was one of the last lands to be settled by humans. During its long period of isolation, New Zealand developed a distinct biodiversity of animal, fungal and plant life. The country's varied topography and its sharp mountain peaks, such as the Southern Alps, owe much to the tectonic uplift of land and volcanic eruptions. New Zealand's capital city is Wellington, while its most populous city is Auckland. - Cucurbita maxima, one of at least five species of cultivated squash, is one of the most diverse domesticated species. This species originated in South America from the wild "Cucurbita andreana" over 4000 years ago. The two species hybridize quite readily but have noticeably different calcium levels. - A pumpkin is a cultivar of a squash plant, most commonly of "Cucurbita pepo", that is round, with smooth, slightly ribbed skin, and deep yellow to orange coloration. The thick shell contains the seeds and pulp. Some exceptionally large cultivars of squash with similar appearance have also been derived from "Cucurbita maxima". Specific cultivars of winter squash derived from other species, including "C. argyrosperma", and "C. moschata", are also sometimes called "pumpkin". In New Zealand and Australian English, the term "pumpkin" generally refers to the broader category called winter squash elsewhere. - Blachinda or Plachinda is a German pastry dessert . They are turnovers made of a pie - like crust and filled with a pumpkin filling . - Australian English (AuE, en-AU) is a major variety of the English language, used throughout Australia. Although English has no official status in the Constitution, Australian English is the country's "de facto" official language and is the first language of the majority of the population. After reading the paragraphs above, we are interested in knowing the entity with which 'blachinda' exhibits the relationship of 'instance of'. Find the answer from the choices below. Choices: - area - capital - category - continent - country - cultivar - cultivated plant - family - five - food - fruit - genus - human - island - language - nation - ocean - period - skin - stage - tectonic uplift - term - two - urban area - variety - winter squash
