Question

Give reasons for the following
a. Pitcher plant can make its food, yet has an insectivorous habit
5. Stem prepares food in cactus instead of leaves
c Different plant parts may get modified to store food.​

Answer 1

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.

Cactus make food in it's green fleshy stem. Cactus prepare their food through the process of photosynthesis, like any other plant. Since, Cactus have their leaves reduced to spines, therefore photosynthesis takes place through the stem.
