Answer 1

Hint: Venomous snakes are species of the suborder Serpentes which are capable of producing venom, and they use this venom for killing prey, for defense, and to assist with digestion of their prey. Hemotoxic, neurotoxic, and cytotoxic are the three pharmaceutical effects of snake venoms.

Complete answer:
Snake venom is actually the modified saliva which they used for prey immobilization and self-defense and is delivered through highly specialized teeth, hollow fangs, directly into the bloodstream or tissue of the target. venom was present but it is in small amounts in the ancestors of all snakes also in several lizard families as "toxic saliva" and evolved to extremes in those snake families normally classified as venomous by parallel evolution. a snake is a legless reptile of the sub-order serpentes having a long, thin body and a fork-shaped tongue while cobra is any of various venomous snakes of the family elapidae . The Indian cobra, also known as the naja naja, spectacled cobra, Asian cobra, or binocellate cobra it is a species of the genus Naja and is found, in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, and Bhutan, and a member of the "big four" species that inflict the most snakebites on humans in India.
