Step-by-step solution
Terpene cannabinol is a cannabinoid which is widely known for its use in recreation and stimulation. Glucosinolates are secondary metabolites predominantly found in the Brassicaceae family (like cabbage) and serve as a defense mechanism to protect the plant from pests and herbivores. Tannins are polyphenolic compounds present in chocolates, tea, and wine, which contribute to and improve their astringency. Morphine is an alkaloid obtained from the opium poppy and is medically used as a strong pain reliever (analgesi
