Answer:

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.

Answer:

Insectivorous plants are partial heterotrophs whereas other plants are autotrophs. The insectivorous plants are partially dependent on insects to derive nitrogen, therefore are called carnivorous. Other plants can prepare their own food by the process called photosynthesis. Even insectivorous plants derive energy from photosynthesis.
