intro

Phytophagy means “the eating of plants”. This can be done by animals, insects, or even humans. There is plenty of phytophagy around us, in our dining hall, on the ground or you can even spot phytophagy just by staring closely at a plant. In this project, every student will have to find proof of phytophagy, make a multipanel, create their own methods, and have someone else follow their methods. I chose a leaf that was right in front of Tobin Hall, the reason behind why I chose this leaf is because it stood out to me as it was very nicely shaped compared to the other leaves on campus. Also it was not too far from Boyden Gym, where I am most of the day.
