Answer 1

Answer:

Meeta discovered a new plant species that is non-green and is found on the green plants. 

I would classify the plant as parasitic plant with heterotrophic mode of nutrition.

Reason:

---> Heterotrophic plants do not possess chlorophyll.

---> Therefore, they cannot prepare their own food using photosynthesis process.

---> They obtain their food from other plants.

For example:

Cuscutta is a prasaitic plant which develops special roots called Haustoria.these roots penetrate deep into host plant tissue and absorb nutrients from them.....
