Answer:
Plants have also evolved to respond subsequent microbes attack in case if they get infected. Plants synthesize diversity of secondary metabolites which prominently function to protect plants against predators and microbes according to toxic nature of microbes and repel the microbes and herbivores.
Ribosomes are the organelles that help in protein synthesis. Protein is required for many cell activities such as damage repair and other chemical processes.
A secondary metabolite is typically present in a taxonomically restricted set of organisms or cells (plants, fungi, bacteria, etc). Secondary metabolites are organic compounds produced by bacteria, fungi, or plants which are not directly involved in the normal growth, development, or reproduction of the organism.
