Summary
Plants add a touch of color and fragrance to our daily lives. They inject an element of anger in our lives and they cannot move to escape their predators. All plants have other means of protecting themselves from the herbivores. Some plants have physical such as thorns. Chemical defenses of plants against consumption by herbivores are determined by non-nutrient compounds such as fiber, lignin, cellulose, toxicants or essential oils and other volatile substances. Some volatile substances are overtly toxic others are merely unpleasant [1]
