information on insectivorous plant with diagram

Answer 1

$\huge\mathbb\fcolorbox{purple}{lavenderblush}{✰Answer}$

✰Insectivorous means insect-eating, these plants derive most of their nutrition from the insects, that they trap and consume. These plants grow in humid areas, where plenty of sunlight and moisture is found. They are found in the nitrogen deficient soil. That is why they trap and digest insects to absorb nutrients.

Answer 2

Answer:

These plants are insectivorous, which means they eat insects, and they get most of their nutrition from the insects they catch and devour.

Explanation:

• These plants thrive in humid environments with plenty of sunlight and moisture.
• They can be found in soil that is lacking in nitrogen.
• To absorb nutrients, they capture and eat insects.
• Insectivorous plants have names like Venus flytrap, pitcher plant, and cobra lily.
• Carnivorous plant is a term used to describe them.
• They can be found in areas where certain nutrients, particularly nitrogen, are scarce.
• They capture insects and digest them to meet their nitrogen needs.

Types of traps:

• Pitfall Traps: Pitfall traps can be found in pitcher plants. They are made out of a hollow leaf with a lid that is filled with liquid to aid in the digestion of the prey.
• Snap Traps: Venus flytraps have this kind of trap. As soon as the prey comes into contact with the trigger hair, they quickly close their leaves.
• Bladderwort Traps: Bladderwort traps are common in Utricularia. To suck the small creatures, they employ a partial vacuum.
• Flypaper Traps: These sticky, adhesive traps are great for catching flies. The stalked glands that exude sticky mucilage cover the leaves.
• Lobster-pot Traps: Lobster-pot traps can be found in corkscrew plants. They have hair that points downward, which drives the prey deep into the trap.

Hence, insectivorous plants feed on insects to fulfil their nutrient deficiency.
