Plants have existed since the dawn of time and have played important roles in human lives. Plants are used as medicines, food sources, building materials, clothing, dyes, paints, inks, papers, fertilizers, pesticides, lubricants and much more. One of the most used plant is Coffea Arabica, commonly known as coffee. Coffee is the world’s most favorite drink and the most important commercial crop plant. People drink coffee to relieve mental and physical fatigue and to increase mental alertness. Coffee is also used to prevent Parkinson 's disease, gallstones, type 2 diabetes, gastrointestinal cancer, lung cancer, and breast cancer. Other uses include treatment of headache, low blood pressure, obesity, and attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). It is scientifically known as Coffea Arabica L. It name is derived from the domain Eukaryota, Plantae kingdom, Magnoliophyta phylum, Magoliopsida class, a subclass of Asteridae, Rubiales order, a member of the Rubiaceae family, genus Coffea L and the specie name being Coffea arabica. I choose to write about Coffea Arabica L because of its use in the everyday human life. Coffee is use every day by 83% adults in the United States. Coffee sales are increasing 20% revenue per year and account for nearly 8% of the 18 billion dollars in the United States coffee market.

In the Article “Your Favorite Drinks Can Wreck Your Body” by Russ Lloyd that said “Yes” to having labels on Sugary Drinks. People think that having sugar in your drinks is good because they know what they are drinking and what is going to happen to them if they drink too much of it. Then there are others that think that it is not ok having labels on the drinks. They say that they will ruin the drinks and they will ruin the company's money that they are getting from making the sugary drinks. I agree with putting “Sugar Labels” on the sodas that we drink. The reasons why people say that it is good to have the labels on it is if they drink too much of the drink them they can get sick, how much sugar is in the drink and if they do get rid of the sugar them the taste. In conclusion, sugary drinks should have a warning Label because people need to know what is about to go into there body and what might happen to them if they consume too much of the drinks.

“Just now.” Taehyung yawned, letting go of Jungkook’s hand to stretch, his husky voice cracking a little from sleep as he let out a satisfied groan. Jungkook watched his body twisting, his shirt riding up to show smooth skin stretching taut over lean muscle, and couldn't help but reach out to touch. He ran his fingertips down Taehyung’s side and brushing them over the softer skin of his lower stomach, watching the muscles jump and flutter beneath his touch. Taehyung lifted his head to glance at him, eyebrow raised, lips stretched to one side in a lazy smirk, before sitting up, lightly, softly grabbing his wandering hand and holding it in place, hooded gaze flirty and teasing. Jungkook sat back and grinned appreciatively as Taehyung ran a

I had depleted quite a bit of my funds by now, yet my will to continue drinking had not at all depreciated. I called for another taxi in an effort to find a store that sale liquor this hour of the night. This time, my driver wasn't so friendly and neither were the residents surrounding the store he dropped me off by. Though I thought I was being on high alert, they managed to loot $50 from my back pocket and steal my cell phone. Pissed off as I was, even that wasn't enough to keep me from going forward as planned. Just when it seemed illogical that things could get any worse, I eventually drank until I blacked out and was left clueless to where I was. When I came to, I thought I was back in the hotel room. To my dismay, I managed to
Coffea commonly known as a coffee plant is the member of the Rubiaceae family (USDA 2015). While there are various species of the coffee plant, Coffee Arabica and Coffee Canephora are mostly grown. However, between them Coffee Arabica is considered to have greater quality and flavor. With the increase in demand of coffee within coffee drinkers globally, coffee has successfully ensured its place to become the world’s second largest commodity. Brazil is known as the top manufacturer of coffee followed by countries such as Vietnam, Indonesia, Colombia, and Ethiopia (USDA 2014). The rising demand for coffee has augmented the dependence of the coffee industry on countries that grows coffee. Using pesticides on coffee fields seemed to be an ultimate solution for farmers who were hoping for maximum productivity of coffee. Pesticides are used in agriculture in order to protect plants from fungal diseases, pests, insects that affect the growth of food crops. On the short run, using pesticides has an advantage as it increases the production and the quality of coffee. However, pesticide practices have negative issues on the environment, the quality and the amount of coffee manufactured, and the health of the coffee drinkers and the farmers in the long run.
