Nicotine, Morphine, and Caffeine |
My chapter is chapter 13 which is about nicotine, caffeine, and morphine. It talks about the history, discoverers, and evolution of them. Most people don't think about where things like caffeine came from. When you open up a soda you don't think about who discovered it or how it was made, but its actually really important and interesting. Below is the book that my class is reading, I recommend it for you if you love science!
