What plant get food from small animals which they trap?
Sundew, venus flytrap, pitcher plant
Which plant consumes the most CO2?

Why does the pitcher plant use chemicals to turn its food into soup?
Because that enables it to digest the food.
What plant catches and consumes insects?
The Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula) is a plant that catches and consumes insects. It has specialized leaves with sensitive trigger hairs that snap shut when an insect lands on them, trapping the insect inside. The plant then secretes digestive enzymes to break down and absorb nutrients from the prey.
What special job does each part of the pitcher plant have?
The stem gives the plant water,and the pitchers eat the food!
Does the Pitcher Plant make its own food?
Yes, the Pitcher Plant is a carnivorous plant that supplements its nutrient intake by trapping and digesting insects in its pitcher-shaped leaves. While it can photosynthesize to produce some of its own food, it relies on capturing insects to obtain the necessary nutrients that are lacking in its environment.
If a rabbit consumes 500 calories of plant material how much of that would be passed to a hawk in the following food chain?

What is the food chain of a hanging pitcher plant?
The hanging pitcher plant primarily functions as a carnivorous plant that captures and digests insects and other small organisms. Its food chain begins with the plant itself, which uses photosynthesis to produce energy. When insects are attracted to the nectar and trapped in the fluid-filled pitcher, they are digested by enzymes, providing nutrients to the plant. This process helps sustain the plant while also contributing to the ecosystem by managing insect populations.
Does the Venus Flytrap and Pitcher plant belong to plants?
yes, they have a digestive system
