Answer:
Insectivorous plants trap insects because they grow in soil which is usually thin and is also poor in nutrients, so they eat insects to fulfil their nutrient requirement.
pitcher plant has a modified structure. it has a lid on top with a pitcher like structure joining. a pitcher plant smells good to trap insects when an insect is trapped the plant secretes juices into the insects body which digests the insects body and the plant absorbs the nutrients.
