Question

2. How does Venus flytrap plant catch an insect?

Answer 1

Answer:

To attract flies or other prey, the Venus flytrap secretes nectar on to its open traps. Insects smell the sweet nectar and once they land on the leaves, they trip the trigger hairs on the outside of the traps. This causes the cells in the leaves to expand. In less than a second, the leaves shut.

Answer 2

• To attract flies or other animals, the Venus flytrap secretes honey into its open traps.
• Insects are drawn to the sweet nectar, and when they land on the leaves, the traps' trigger hairs are activated.
• As a result of this, the cells in the leaves expand. In a fraction of a second, the leaves slam shut.
• At initially, the traps do not close properly, enabling little insects to escape. The cilia of the leaves tighten around the prey as larger insects struggle, and the leaves clamp down on the plant's meal.
• As a result of insect secretions like uric acid, the trap leaves will also close more tightly.
• Within minutes, the traps form airtight seals and begin to digest.
• Because it lacks a nervous system and muscles, the Venus flytrap's trapping process is yet unknown.
