What are used to make the venom?

The venom in snakes and other venomous animals is produced in specialised glands called venom glands. These glands are typically located in the head of the animal, near the mouth or fangs. The venom is produced by specialised cells within the glands and is stored in venom sacs. When the animal is threatened or needs to capture prey, it can inject the venom into the victim through its fangs or other specialised structures. The venom typically contains a complex mixture of proteins, enzymes, and other molecules that have various toxic effects on the victim, such as causing tissue damage, paralysis, or even death.
