Some plants are poisonous because they use it to keep threat from animals away. Unlike animals, they do not have the ability to move away from a predator and their only means of defense is to poison them.
Plants protect themselves by producing chemical compounds that deter herbivores, like toxins or bad-tasting substances. They also use physical structures such as thorns, spines, or tough outer layers to discourage herbivores. Some plants have the ability to mimic signals of predators or pests to scare off potential threats.
The sun gives off energy in the form of sunlight. The sunlight is then absorbed by plants. Herbivores and first-level consumers eat the plants, therefore absorbing some of the energy. Carnivores and second-level consumers eat the herbivores, absorbing some of THEIR energy, which came from the plants in the first place!
In order for a food chain to be stable, there must always be less biomass as you go up in trophic levels (i.e. from plants to herbivores to carnivores). This is basically because energy is always lost as it is transferred to each successive level, since herbivores use some of the energy they get from plants to stay alive (leaving less for carnivores who eat them), and so there will always be fewer carnivores than herbivores.
Example sentence - The herbivores get energy from eating plants.
Plants use the sun´s energy (the energy in photons, light particles) to synthesize glucose from smaller chemical particles. They eventually use glucose to grow. Herbivores eat the plants and take up the energy in their cells, and use it to grow themselves. Carnivores may eat the herbivores and do the same.
Some plants are poisonous because they use it to keep threat from animals away. Unlike animals, they do not have the ability to move away from a predator and their only means of defense is to poison them.
Herbivores have flat teeth that they use to eat plants. Carnivore have the pointy, sharp teeth that they use to rip up their meat. So to answer your question, herbivores have flat teeth.
To effectively keep cats away from toxic plants, place the plants out of reach or in a location that is inaccessible to the cats. You can also use natural deterrents like citrus peels or commercial cat repellents to discourage them from approaching the plants. Regularly monitor the plants and remove any that are toxic to ensure the safety of your pets.
Animals use nonvascular plants for one main purpose. This purpose is food. Many herbivores feed on moss and ferns, which are non vascular plants.
Some dinosaurs are herbivores meaning they eat only plants.

Some plants have the ability to mimic signals of predators or pests to scare off potential threats.
they eat grass and use wood from trees to make their dams and their dams are very important to them
To effectively keep goats away from your garden, you can use physical barriers like fences or hedges, use natural deterrents like strong-smelling plants or predator urine, or supervise the goats when they are near the garden.

Carnivores and second-level consumers eat the herbivores, absorbing some of THEIR energy, which came from the plants in the first place!
You can use marigolds to keep bugs away from your garden by planting them around the perimeter of your garden or interspersing them among your other plants. Marigolds have a strong scent that repels many insects, acting as a natural insect deterrent.
There are sprays available at any pet store that you can use in your yard to discourage cats from wandering in your yard.
