Answer:

Carnivorous plants are plants which get nutrients from trapping and eating animals. They are often called insectivorous plants, because they usually trap insects. Since they get some of their food from animals, carnivorous plants can grow in places where the soil is thin, or poor in nutrients.

Explanation:

Insectivorous plants are flowering plants which lure insects to them, then trap them in some way. They then digest the insects for nutrients. Examples are the Venus fly trap, yellow pitcher plant and the cobra lily.
