Answer to Question 1

Chewing gum comes almost entirely from plants. The gum is made from a substance
called chicle that comes from the sap of a tree. The sugar used to sweeten it comes from
sugar beets or sugar cane. Even the flavoring, such as mint, comes from a cultivated
plant

Answer to Question 2

Agriculture is the most important of all sciences because we depend on agriculture for
the food we eat.
