Answer 1

Answer:

Secondary metabolites are organic compounds that are not directly involved in the normal growth, development, or reproduction of an organism.

Unlike primary metabolites, absence of secondary metabolites does not result in immediate death, but rather in long-term impairment of the organism's survivability, fecundity, or aesthetics, or perhaps in no significant change at all.

Secondary metabolites are often restricted to a narrow set of species within a phylogenetic group.

Secondary metabolites often play an important role in plant defence against herbivory and other interspecies defenses.

Humans use secondary metabolites as medicines, flavorings, and recreational drugs.

Examples - Abietic acid, Pipecolic acid
