Answers
Answer:
Insectivorous plants have certain insect trapping features on them such as pleasant smelling nectars, hair like structures and slippery surfaces that make it possible for insects to make a trap for insects and shut them inside their special lobed leaves or trappers.
Answer:
Insectivorous plants are the ones that derive most of their nutrition by trapping the insects and consuming the insects. For eg., Venus flytrap, Bladderwort, etc.
Explanation:
The Venus flytrap is a flowering plant best known for its carnivorous eating habits. The “trap” is made of two hinged lobes at the end of each leaf. On the inner surfaces of the lobes are hair-like projections called trichomes that cause the lobes to snap shut when prey comes in contact with them.
