Ohhhhhhh I think I'm getting it. Then they grow up into a big tree and that's where Apples come from?

No, acorns turn into oak trees. To get apple trees you need apple seeds.

You get those from core dumps.

Well, apples don't come from oaks. Unless you count oak apples: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oak_apple
