It is all about cereals and their botanical names

Enjoyed doing this quiz and I learnt too.

What is the logic behind these botanical names is not understood atleast not by me. Nothing surprising as English language has no logic either and botanists have taken advantage of this and perhaps just went about naming these cereals without any logic either  No one has questioned them and so they are solid as rock.  My heart goes out to those students who are learning botany and they have to mug these names for their exams.

Let me test your knowledge.  Good Luck

These are the other  quizzes that I have prepared in the times I have been here:
