The True Nut
Pistacia vera

producing fruit, but it also has many positive and negative effects
on humans and other organisms.

I am Jelena Kravic and as you will find out I have a
special
relationship with pistachios. I am a junior at the University of Wisconsin La
Crosse majoring in Biology with an
emphasis
in pre-medicine.
This web page is a project for my Organismal Biology class for the
Spring 2009 semester.
I hope to go on to medical school and work in
pediatrics, maybe child psychiatry. I was born in
Sarajevo Bosnia and I came to the United States
with my family in 1996. When I am not studying, doing homework or
preparing for the MCAT I like to travel, shop, eat sweets, dance and
spend time with my family and friends. Please feel free to
contact me
with any question or comments regarding my site at
