Answer:

Dr. Campbell was looking for a cure for cancer in the Brazilian tropical rain forest. He stayed in the jungle for<em> 6 years in search of a specific species of flowers </em>containing the compound for the cure. However, in the end, the compound was actually found in a<em> type of rare ant</em> and not in the flowers.

Explanation:

The question above is related to the story entitled "Medicine Man." The story focuses on Dr. Robert Campbell, a researcher, who spent years in search for a cancer cure in the Amazonian jungle.

It also focused on his battle of preserving the rainforest against a construction company. He wanted the company to stop its operation until he could find the compound.
