The article was about fascinating facts about plants, this is my favorite fact, human beings use plants in countless ways. They get many foods, drinks, and flavorings from plants. They build homes from wood and many other parts of plants. People also burn wood for heat and energy. Many of the fibers used to make cloth come from plants, especially cotton. Other useful things made from plants include medicines, paper, chewing gum, cork, rubber, and cocoa butter. ;D
