Question
Chapter 37.3, Problem 4CC
Summary Introduction
To determine: The similarity between systemic acquired resistance in plants and the immune system of animals.
Introduction: An organism’s response to an external or an internal stimulus is known as its behavior. Herbivores and pathogens are likely to attack plants and the plants use structural features like outer bark, cuticles, and epidermal trichomes to protect themselves from herbivore attacks and pathogenic infections. Several secondary metabolites such as terpenes, phenolics, and alkaloids are produced by plants in response to herbivore attacks.
