Question

How they obtain nutrition about pitcher plant

Answer 1

Answer:

Insects

Explanation:

Pitcher plant grows in swampy areas in bogs where there is a deficiency of nitrogen. So to meet the nitrogen deficiency it undergoes saprophytic mode of nutrition. The pitcher plant has a slippery lid and a deep cavity-the pitfall cavity. It attracts flies and insects using the anthocyanin pigment in it's cavity. The cavity being slippery and grooved doesn't allow the insects to jump out. In the cavity through a method of digestion the insects are converted into ammonia, phosphates and urea and are absorbed by the plant.

Answer 2

Answer:

Pitcher plant derives nutrition just the way any other plant does . It takes water and minerals from the soil and food by photosynthesis. But the soil in which it grows doesn't has nitrogen so it uses the pitcher for killing small insects and then digesting them to derive nitrogen from the animal.
