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!

4.The fourth could be considered the most sardonic as it greatly hits parents who cannot control themselves from reproducing but cannot produce a life for their child

5.Swift's purpose of using a provocative approach is to provoke and evoke emotions and in the process, elicit proper and feasible solutions from the audience.

6.Personally, I don't see it as as Swift's own belief but as his way of enlightening the audience on what is truly happening with women and families.

7.The word "proposal" is very catchy in a way that people always wanted to seek for solutions and ways to answer to a problem but are often tired and lazy to have their own ideas.
