Answer 2

Answer:

Sundew plants have sticky hairs on their leaves because they are insectivores, meaning they feed on insects. When insects come to sit on the sticky hairs, they are attracted by their gleam. They cling to the leaves, which the plant eats.

Explanation:

• Sundew is a Drosera genus that grows in both tropical and temperate settings.
• Sundews have delicate, wispy hairs on their leaves that finish in a small drop of liquid.
• The tasty honey liquid attracts insects, yet dewdrops are sticky enough to capture them.
• This is a carnivorous plant species. These critters' bodies are wiry and extremely small.
• Wings are present in these animals. In this area, Nepenthes is recognised as a carnivorous plant.
