    The purpose of this group is to gather data on medicinal and nutritional plants in biodiversity "hotspots" regions throughout the world that have lost their natural habitat due to past, and present human activities. You must identify these plants along with their medicinal or nutritional purpose to life.

    Use the links provided to gather data and present your findings on the following questions:

    1) What is a biodiversity hotspot or Ecological Hotspots?
    2) What are vascular plants?
    3) List 10 plants that are endangered of becoming extinct in "hotspots" regions and their medicinal or nutritional benefits to humanity and/or the ecosystem.
    4) Is sustainable development an attainable solution to reversing "hotspots" regions and simultaneously meet both human and environmental needs?
