    The study of phytochemicals, which are manmade substances derived from plants, is referred to as phytochemistry.

Plants combine phytochemicals for a variety of purposes, including protecting themselves from insects and plant diseases. Plant mixes come in a variety of forms, but the majority may be categorized into four biosynthetic classes, namely, alkaloids, phenylpropanoids, polyketides, and terpenoids.
