Ignore my comment. Someone had already mentioned it. Just hasn't been fixed yet.
#feedback It's a super minuscule detail, but it says, "We groups "all" into group 1." Instead, it should be "We group "all" into group 1" without the "s." Unless my grammar is way off, in which case I will be revisiting my elementary school notes on reading and writing lol

Hi Jennifer, I'm unsure what part of the question you find confusing, so I figured I'd explain my entire thought process regarding 6.1.
The first two sentences are context. We know its context because it sets up the topic of the passage and the argument itself. The first sentence simply gives you context regarding wheat, and the second sentence, sets up the argument by proposing that there is "nothing new to learn" about wheat since it has been around for such a long period of time. The shift between context and the actual argument begins with the word "Yet" in the 3rd sentence when the author begins saying that in fact there is actually something new to learn and that is the fact that wheat can absorb phosphorus. By saying that wheat can absorb phosphorus the author is arguing that there is in fact new things to learn about wheat despite its long existence and prevalence in modern day agriculture. The final sentence of the passage is the premise, which describes how wheat absorbs phosphorus. The premise gives support to the authors conclusion - which is that there is in fact new things to learn about wheat despite its heavy prevalence in modern day agriculture.
I hope this helps clear things up! More than happy to provide you with more clarification if it is needed. Also, if my interpretation of the passage is wrong please do correct me (and that goes for everyone else other than Jennifer who reads this).
Welcome to the club my friend :)
