Answer:

Scientists think that foxgloves have evolved the poisons as an evolutionary adaptation and defense mechanism that provided them with better survival capacities.

As poisons are repellents which help the plants to repel any predator or attacker and enhance their survival. That is why scientists are of the view that old fox glove did not necessarily had this poison many hundred years ago but some how there would be facing harsh circumstances or alot of predators. Due to which, with the passage of time they developed these chemicals which enhanced their life time and survival chances.

Some poisonous chemicals from foxglove are:

  • Deslanoside
  • Digitoxin
  • Digitalis glycoside

Hope it help!
