ou are to find a plant product that we use every day and do not pick one that your classmates have already chosen.
Make sure to include the product name in the title of your discussion post so that others can quickly see what you have chosen.
Do some research and address the following:
From what plant does your product come? Include the common and scientific name (properly formatted).
What is the product? What does it do? How do we extract it from the plant? Describe in detail.
What is the primary use: medicinal, ceremonial, etc.?
Are there commercial fields for the plant? Where?
Are there any substitutes for your product? If there is no information, feel free to take an educated guess, and support it.
What is the most fascinating thing you learned about your product?
Reply Posts Requirements: Replies should be focused on the week’s topic and biology. They should be substantive* and demonstrate understanding to be eligible for maximum credit. Respectful and professional discussion is expected.

*”Substantive” means comments that contribute something new and relevant to the discussion. Thus, a reply that simply conveys agreement or reiterates the original poster’s thoughts is not substantive. Rather, a best-practice reply:
contributes a new idea or perspective
asks good follow-up questions to points made
provides examples or illustrations of a key point
points out inconsistencies in an argument
shares a new and relevant resource to further the discussion
