yes, with any plant you can over water and KILL it
Venus Flytraps should constantly be in poor, moist soil. I use New Zealand Long Fibered Sphagnum Moss, as it can hold 20 times its weight in water (It's like a big sponge!) Distilled water, with no additives, or carefully purified water from home is good. Collecting rainwater isn't a bad idea, either.
The food source for Venus Flytraps are insects which happen to land in one of its 'traps'. The Flytrap slowly digests the insect over a period of around 10 days while using its nutrients to keep itself healthy and stay alive.
The fly gets slowly digested over a period of around 10 days. Its juices are used as nutrients for the Flytrap to consume. The left over parts of the fly are kept inside the trap until it is washed out by the rain once the trap has reopened.
The Venus Flytrap uses a type of movement called a nastic movement wish is caused by a sudden stiffening in turgor pressure. Turgor pressure is pressure built up by water. That is why when a plant does not have enough water, it wilts from lack of this turgor pressure. I give credit to this knowledge to: Seventh Grade Science Class ;)
If you over feed your venus flytrap many of your traps will die quickly sinse they can only be used 3-5 times before dieing. This may kill your traps faster than you can make some and you may end up killing the plant if you keep on feeding a trap evrey time it opens.
yes, it is possible to drown a flower
Yes! definately! If one holds a glass of water, and one trips...you could end up, face down in the water and drown!
Not with the current amount of water on earth, there would still be land left over
The Venus Flytrap digests flies by using acids similar to stomach juices from the human body to break down the fly over a long period of time (around 10 days). After the fly has been digested, the trap opens up again.
Yes. If the nose and mouth are underwater, than the person can drown, no matter how little water there is. However, it is very unlikely to drown under this little water, unless the person is unconscious, being forced to stay, cannot move for some reason (such as a newborn too weak to turn over), or is trying to commit suicide.
Yes, the venus flytrap is a carnivore because it consumes any insect it can trap, and those insects provide nourishment for the plant with by way of their meat content. Because it only consumes insects and other tiny bugs some people think that the venus flytrap is a more specialised type of carnivore called an insectivore.
i personally could stay for 30 secs.
