 Hey friend ^_^

Here is your answer:

<> Heterotrophs are non-green plants that can't make their own food. They are divided into saprophytes and parasites.

<> We can say insectivorous plants are partial heterotrophs because they can't make their own food and hence gain their nutrition from consuming insects.

Hope it helps u!

Answer:

yes,

Insectivorous plants prepare food by themselves, but they lack some of the vital nutrients such as nitrogen since they grow in soil where nitrogen is deficient. They eat some insects and thus make up for these nutrients. Hence they are said to be partial heterotrophs
