Euphorbia, commonly known as spurge, has a protective structure in the form of a milky latex sap that can be toxic and irritating to herbivores. This sap serves as a deterrent, while the plant's often spiny or thorny leaves and stems provide physical protection against grazing. Additionally, some species may have a thick, fleshy body that helps them conserve water and survive in harsh environments. Together, these adaptations enhance the plant's survival against predation and environmental stressors.
