Research Activity For Senior Project

Describe your topic. Ethnobotany is the study of particular indigenous plants that are used as remedies and beneficial towards health in general within different cultures and regions. Specialized people who are commited to researching these types of plants are called Ethnobotaits, they look further into the ways of using the plants for such things as food, shelter, medicine, clothing, hunting, and religious ceremonies. They are mainly known for curing illness and being used as medicine. What is it about this subject that interests you? Be as specific as you can. If you have multiple reasons for wanting to explore this subject, include all of them. My interest in medical plants is very simple. I am interested in knowing what causes the growth of medical plants and what benefits do they have in having all these natural curing nutrients stored inside of them. I am also curious about the kind of effects that they have to nature other than helping us with health issues, but what do they offer mother nature as well. I also want to know what I might stumble upon while researching this topic. Research projects that have already been done and summarize the researcher's findings/results. Well, one research project that I came across as interesting used Ethnobotany as their primary subject of research and also involved medical plants that are commonly used around the world. It seemed quite interesting because it explored different cultures and their beliefs in these magical healing plants.
