In the world, out of 3000 species of snakes, only 450 are venomous. Snake venom is a type of poison that is typically yellow fluid and is produced in the back of the snake's head in the salivary gland, the parts of the head where saliva is made. It is composed of proteins enzymes and other molecular substances. These toxic substances work to destroy cells and disrupt nerve impulses or both. Snakes use their venom for hunting prey or for defending against predators. Once the snake bites, muscles in its head squeeze the venom gland. This pushes the liquid through its hall of fangs muscles that act as hypodermic needles and inserts the venom into the flesh of its spray. Once the venom is injected, some toxins target the nervous system which is called neurotoxins, Hemotoxin, Myotoxin. So it is essential to have knowledge about different species of snakes so that doctors could provide the right kind of anti-venom which is the cure for a snake bite the anti-venom is actually made out of the venom itself to develop an anti-venom a host of the animal usually a horse is injected with larger amounts of venom eventually the horse's immune system causes blood plasma cells to produce antibodies these antibodies are then extracted from the host animal's body processed and purified so that they can be given to snake bite victims the king cobra is the largest snake in the world with the ability to inject venom also the inland taipan is considered the most venomous snake in the world.
