"True, but what about ingredients like water that you can't cut?" He smiled at Jasmine, because he was glad she tried, but y'know? Quote:

"All ingredients are dangerous if mishandled." So that Angel would know to pay attention. Text Cut: Plant and animal people Quote:

Originally Posted by Lissy Longbottom "Well, the potions are broken up by ingredients that come from animals, and ingredients that are plant based. And then the...miscellaneous stuff," he added. That was what he was asking for, right? He was still a bit confused. Quote:
Originally Posted by Expecto-Penguin Kace raised his hand and said, "Professor I would classify potion ingredients like plants and animals. I think I would group them like they are magical and then like muggle stuff?" That is what he thought. Cosgrach nodded at them as they gave the correct answer. In addition, he smiled at Gabriel and Caleb (although the latter rolled his eyes at him!), because they had been more precise.
"Right, you guys," he said and announced to the class. "We call them 'flora and fauna'. You can also further classify as 'magical' and 'non-magical'," he said, "and 'miscellaneous is correct too." Water or any other liquid wasn't animal or plant, after all.
"Last question, people!" he said excitedly to wake up those that were sleeping, "Name one ingredient and its effect." It wasn't so hard, was it? Then they could gooooo.
