Corn
Scientific Name: – Zea mays
Maize (mayz; Zea mays subsp. mays, from Spanish: maí_z after Taí_no mahiz), known in some English-speaking countries as corn, is a large grain plant domesticated by indigenous peoples in Mesoamerica in prehistoric times. The leafy stalk produces ears which contain the grain, which are seeds called kernels. Maize kernels are often used in cooking as a starch.
