Information:  - Herbaceous plants ( in botanical use frequently simply herbs ) are plants which have no persistent woody stem above ground . Herbaceous plants may be annuals , biennials or perennials . Annual herbaceous plants die completely at the end of the growing season or when they have flowered and fruited , and they then grow again from seed . Herbaceous perennial and biennial plants may have stems that die at the end of the growing season , but parts of the plant survive under or close to the ground from season to season ( for biennials , until the next growing season , when they flower and die ) . New growth develops from living tissues remaining on or under the ground , including roots , a caudex ( a thickened portion of the stem at ground level ) or various types of underground stems , such as bulbs , corms , stolons , rhizomes and tubers . Examples of herbaceous biennials include carrot , parsnip and common ragwort ; herbaceous perennials include potato , peony , hosta , mint , most ferns and most grasses . By contrast , non-herbaceous perennial plants are woody plants which have stems above ground that remain alive during the dormant season and grow shoots the next year from the above - ground parts -- these include trees , shrubs and vines . Some relatively fast - growing herbaceous plants ( especially annuals ) are pioneers , or early - successional species . Others form the main vegetation of many stable habitats , occurring for example in the ground layer of forests , or in naturally open habitats such as meadow , salt marsh or desert . Some herbaceous plants can grow rather large , such as the Musa genus , to which the banana belongs . The age of some herbaceous perennial plants can be determined by analyzing annual growth rings in the secondary root xylem , a method called herbchronology .  - Ants are eusocial insects of the family Formicidae and, along with the related wasps and bees, belong to the order Hymenoptera. Ants evolved from wasp-like ancestors in the Cretaceous period, about 99 million years ago and diversified after the rise of flowering plants. More than 12,500 of an estimated total of 22,000 species have been classified. They are easily identified by their elbowed antennae and the distinctive node-like structure that forms their slender waists.  - In botany, a fruit is the seed-bearing structure in flowering plants (also known as angiosperms) formed from the ovary after flowering.  - In general use, herbs are any plants used for food, flavoring, medicine, or fragrances for their savory or aromatic properties. Culinary use typically distinguishes herbs from spices. "Herbs" refer to the leafy green or flowering parts of a plant (either fresh or dried), while "spices" are produced from other parts of the plant (usually dried), including seeds, berries, bark, roots and fruits.  - Plants are mainly multicellular, predominantly photosynthetic eukaryotes of the kingdom Plantae.  - A eukaryote (or or ) is any organism whose cells contain a nucleus and other organelles enclosed within membranes. Eukaryotes belong to the taxon Eukarya or Eukaryota. The defining feature that sets eukaryotic cells apart from prokaryotic cells (Bacteria and Archaea) is that they have membrane-bound organelles, especially the nucleus, which contains the genetic material and is enclosed by the nuclear envelope. The presence of a nucleus gives eukaryotes their name, which comes from the Greek  ("eu", "well" or "true") and  ("karyon", "nut" or "kernel"). Eukaryotic cells also contain other membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria and the Golgi apparatus. In addition, plants and algae contain chloroplasts. Eukaryotic organisms may be unicellular or multicellular. Only eukaryotes form multicellular organisms consisting of many kinds of tissue made up of different cell types.

*Question*
Information:  - The United States Ambassador to Vietnam (Vietnamese: "i s Hoa K ti Vit Nam") is the chief American diplomat to the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. After the First Indochina War and the defeat of the French domination over Vietnam, the country was split into North and South Vietnam at the Geneva Conference of 1954. The United States did not recognize North Vietnam and thus had no diplomatic relations with the country. After the reunification of Vietnam in 1976, there followed a period of 20 years in which the United States had no diplomatic relations with Vietnam.  - Michael Walter Michalak ( born 1946 ) is the former United States Ambassador to Vietnam . He currently serves as Senior Vice President for the US - ASEAN Business Council Born in Detroit , Michigan , Mr. Michalak received a Bachelor of Science degree from Oakland University in Rochester , Michigan , and Master of Science degree in Physics from The Catholic University of America in Washington , D.C. He received a second master 's degree in Public Administration from the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University in Cambridge , Massachusetts . He was the U.S. Senior Official to APEC from November 2005 until his appointment as Ambassador to Vietnam . Prior to the APEC responsibility he was Deputy Chief of Mission to the US Embassy in Tokyo . In February 2011 he assumed the position of Senior Advisor to the Private Sector Host Committee for APEC 2011 . Michalak has worked for the U.S. Department of State for over 30 years and is the recipient of a group award for valor for his actions in time of crisis when the U.S. Embassy in Islamabad was burned down .  - The First Indochina War (generally known as the Indochina War in France, and as the Anti-French Resistance War in contemporary Vietnam) began in French Indochina on 19 December 1946 and lasted until 1 August 1954. Fighting between French forces and their Viet Minh opponents in the South dated from September 1945. The conflict pitted a range of forces, including the French Union's French Far East Expeditionary Corps, led by France and supported by Emperor Bo i's Vietnamese National Army against the Viet Minh, led by Ho Chi Minh and its People's Army of Vietnam led by Vo Nguyen Giap. Most of the fighting took place in Tonkin in Northern Vietnam, although the conflict engulfed the entire country and also extended into the neighboring French Indochina protectorates of Laos and Cambodia.    Given the information above, choose from the list below the object entity that exhibits the relation 'occupation' with the subject 'michael w. michalak'.
