Answer:

If it's a natural ability for the plant, it's probably not genetically engineered. It depends on the plant species/fruit.

Explanation:

Predation: A biological interaction where one organism, the predator, kills and eats another organism, its prey.

Genetically Engineered Organism: An animal, plant, or microbe whose DNA has been altered using genetic engineering techniques.

In most cases with let's say a pepper plant, the plant will produce a chemical compound called capsaicin. This is what makes the peppers spicy. It really just depends on the plant we're talking about.

borishaifa [10]

The active hyperemia is the consequence of dilation of arterioles and the resultant influx of blood in the capillaries, which occurs during blushing or excercise.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The rise in organ blood circulation correlated with an organ or tissue having elevated metabolic activity is understood as active hyperemia. An illustration of active hyperemia is the rise in blood flow that follows muscle contraction, also named skeletal muscle activity or responsive hyperemia.

It typically occurs when blood is needed by the organs more than normal. Your blood vessels are expanding to improve blood running in. Reactive hyperemia is the blood circulation reaction to occlusion of blood flow, while active hyperemia is the blood flow result of increased metabolic activity of the tissue.
