What's the difference between kernel and wheat?

Kernel


Definition:

  • (n.) The essential part of a seed; all that is within the seed walls; the edible substance contained in the shell of a nut; hence, anything included in a shell, husk, or integument; as, the kernel of a nut. See Illust. of Endocarp.

  • (n.) The central, substantial or essential part of anything; the gist; the core; as, the kernel of an argument.
  • (v. i.) To harden or ripen into kernels; to produce kernels.

Wheat


Definition:

  • (n.) A cereal grass (Triticum vulgare) and its grain, which furnishes a white flour for bread, and, next to rice, is the grain most largely used by the human race.
