This was a great experience because I learned something new and I’m also taking Bio II this semester. It was about a plant called Gaint Hogweed. It has a toxic compound that can cause severe skin and eye irritation, blistering, and blindness. The organic chemical toxic compound it releases is used as a defense mechanism against various predators. It can also be found in Central Park and other parts of New York.
