Question

What is venom?
define it​

Answer 1

Answer:

a poisonous substance secreted by animals such as snakes, spiders, and scorpions and typically injected into prey or aggressors by biting or stinging.

Answer 2

• Animals frequently emit venom, which is a poison. Venom has evolved in predators and prey, vertebrates and invertebrates.
• Venoms kill by producing toxins that damage cells, such as necrotoxins and cytotoxins.
• Neurotoxins, which affect the nervous system; myotoxins, which cause muscle damage; and hemotoxins, which cause blood clotting problems.
• Venom is distinct from other poisons in that it is administered by a bite, sting, or other similar action rather than through ingestion.
• Thousands of people are killed each year by poisonous animals. Many venoms include toxins that can be utilised to treat a wide range of diseases.
