    ABSTRACT
    This research papers main topic is the drug cannabis sativa or as
    referred to Marijuana. It provides all the affects and purpose of
    the drug, its chemical form, and its history.
    INTRODUCTION
    Cannabis sativa, also known as hemp, is a species of the
    Cannabinaceae family of plants. The dried leaves or flowers of the
    cannabis plant are known as marijuana, which can be smoked,
    through a pipe or bong or hand-rolled into a joint or taken orally
    with food. The oldest known written record on cannabis use
    comes from the Chinese Emperor Shen Nung in 2727 B.C. Herbal
    cannabis imported into Europe may originate from West Africa,
    the Caribbean or South-East Asia.
    METHODS
    For the chemical structure model I have used tiny toothpicks and
    marshmallows to create all the rings and chemical components.

    Names of drug:Scientific name: Cannabis Sativa


    Street names:Pot, Weed, Grass, Mary Jane, 420, Ganga, Dope, Herb, and Joint.
    Chemical makeup:Cannabis is a natural product, the main component of it is
    tetrahydrocannabinol (9-THC), and its used for many medical
    purposes.
    Chemical structure:The chemistry of Cannabis is complex, and the experiments with
    its ingredient are difficult even today. The active agent in
    Cannabis is unique among psychoactive plant materials because
    it contains no nitrogen and its not an alkaloid.

    Molecular formula: C21H30O2


    Molecular weight: 314.4 g/mol
    Purpose of the drug:Cannabis can be used in many different ways in our lives.
    Cannabis is usually referred to as a drug to get high and lose
    conscious. But actually it can be used for many other reasons like
    overcoming depression, back pain, headache, and loss of weight.
    Many studies showed that cannabis can be used in medical
    purposes because it contains two beneficial chemicals. annabidiol
    (CBD) which seems to impact the brain without a high and
    tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) which has pain relieving (and other)
    properties.
    Side effects of the drug:The effects experienced by the cannabis can change from one
    person to another. Cannabis chilled out, relaxed and happy, and
    they may get the giggles or become very talkative. It also makes
    you more aware of your senses. The hallucinogenic effects can
    even give you a feeling of time slowing down. Some people might
    run into panic attacks when taking cannabis but it depends on the
    mood of the person and the dose of the drug.
    Presence in the World
    Cannabis is one of the most used drugs in the whole world, strait
    after tobacco, alcohol, and caffeine. It is widely present in almost
    all the worlds countries.
    Presence in Palestine
    No exact studied have found marijuana in Palestine. Secret
    sources state that there are very small amounts in Palestine, but
    its very hard to find. Cannabis is illegal in Palestine and it has
    many consequences.

    ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

    put out this research. A special thanks to my chemistry teacher
    Miss Meha for her great teaching. I would also like to thank the
    school pioneers baccalaureate school for all the factors it has
