In Mass Effect 3 how can I throw grenades? I've been picking them up, but have no idea how to use them. There does not seem to be a keybinding for throwing grenades.
Do I need a grenade launcher weapon or something?

You'll find grenades lying around, similar to ammo. They're shiny and round and here's a screenshot.
Aim short, or aim for debris/walls near the enemy so they stop and catch the target in the blast. For what it's worth, I was able to lob grenades with pretty good accuracy directly into the enemy's face by the end of the game but often times it was better to land it at their feet or something that would stop the grenade and catch them and everything with them in the blast.

You need a skill to throw grenades, your class should have one. You can see the list of powers and what classes have them on the Wiki. You can use them like any other power, though they don't use a cooldown, they consume grenades.
These are the powers that will consume a grenade when thrown: Cluster Grenade, Frag Grenade, Lift Grenade, Sticky Grenade.
If you don't have a grenade skill/haven't learned it, you can also use your squadmate's grenade powers instead. They gain grenades to use when you do.
