IT HAS AN INSECTIVOROUS HABIT BECAUSE THE TYPE OF SOIL ON WHICH IT LIVES IS DEFICIENT IN NITRATES(NITROGEN) AND THUS TO GET NITROGEN IT FEEDS ON INSECTS. This is because they do not get sufficient nutrients to make food thats why to fulfill their defieciency they eat insects.

Answer:

Pitcher plant has an insectivorous habit due to the lack of nitrogen (nitrates) in which it grows. Thus, to fulfill its nitrogen requirements it feds on insects and absorbs nitrogen from them.
