The plants eat small insects and animals because the soil they grow in do not provide the specific amount of nutrients for plants to grow well. However, they do carry out photosynthesis. It is just their nature that they can only grow in the soil with less nutrients because they have another source of consuming nutrients, if they consumed the specific amount of nutrients as well as nutrients from their prey they would not be able to absorb all the nutrients and this source of consuming small insects would be of no use.
