Yes! Corn, scientifically known as Zea Mays, is indeed a member of the grass family (Poaceae). It is believed to have been domesticated around 7000 years ago from a plant called teosinte (Zea mexicana) in central Mexico.

Other examples of plants that are considered members of the grass family include rye, wheat, barley, rice, oats, millet, bamboo, and sorghum. Poaceae is considered to be the fifth largest plant family on Earth.<|im_end|>
