Q.1 why does Venus fly trap eat insect ?
Q.2 what is stimulus ?
Answers
Answer:
Answer 1.
The reason the Venus Flytrap eats bugs is because it's difficult for the plants to get enough nitrogen from the acidic, boggy soil where it lives. So the Venus Flytrap gets its nitrogen directly from the protein in bugs rather than from the ground and through the roots.
Answer 2.
In physiology, a stimulus is a detectable change in the physical or chemical structure of an organism's internal or external environment. The ability of an organism or organ to detect external stimuli, so that an appropriate reaction can be made, is called sensitivity.
