Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The milky sap inside the seed pods of the poppy plant contains opium, which can produce a sleepy or euphoric feeling when consumed. To extract this sap, the seed pods must be cut and the sap collected. Boiling the poppy leaves or pounding the roots would not yield the same result. Collecting pollen from the flowers would not produce opium at all.
