What is a insectivores plant?
These are plants which eats insects that lands on them.
Why do pitcher plants grow in bogs?
bog are filled with plant eating insects that plants need to def end against
How are decreasing grass and plant life connected to insect population?
It is connected because the insects are eating the grass and plants which makes the plant population decrease.
What is eating all your plants?
Depending on where you live, different animals or insects can be eating your plants. Most of the time it is insects which can be resolved using pesticides, though this method is not environmentally friendly. Other animals such as squirrels or birds can also eat plants and fruit. This can be solved with using plant covers (netting).
How do spiders on plants affect the overall health and growth of the plant?
Spiders on plants can help control pest populations by eating insects that harm the plant. This can promote the overall health and growth of the plant by reducing damage from pests.
What plants eat insects?
Carnivorous plants such as Venus flytraps, pitcher plants, and sundews are known for eating insects as part of their diet. These plants have adapted to nutrient-poor environments by capturing and digesting insects to supplement their nutrient intake.
Why do meat eating plants trap insects because they cannot make their own food?
Meat-eating plants trap insects to obtain nutrients that are lacking in their environment, such as nitrogen and phosphorus, which are essential for their growth and development. By consuming insects, these plants supplement their nutrient intake and enhance their chances of survival in nutrient-poor soils.
What secondary animals eat plant eating insects?
Any grass/plant eating animal like deer,and rabits
What role do plants have in spreading seeds?
Plants provide the pollen that attracts insects. These insects move from plant to plant dropping seeds, which helps flowers grow everywhere.
Why do insects live in gardens?
Levels of light, moisture and temperature, places for shelter, opportunities for mating and sources of food explain why insects live in gardens. Gardens offer plants for plant-eating insects. They offer domesticated and wild animals and people for carnivorous and omnivorous insects.
Why can the caterpillar of the monarch butterfly eat the milkweed plant and be unaffected by the toxin?
The milkweed and the insects that feed on it ( monarchs, milkweed tussocks, milkweed leaf beetles, milkweed longhorns, etc.) have coevolved. All plants have toxins in them to keep from being eaten, but certain species develop immunity to certain toxins, allowing them to feed only on those plants. The evolutionary relationship between plants and the insects that eat them has been likened to an "arms race", in which plants develop toxins to help themselves survive and then the insects develop immunities to allow them to keep feeding. After millions of years of this convolution, very firm insect-host relationships are developed, which is why most insects can only feed on a single host plant or family of host plants. Monarchs have also developed the ability to sequester the Cardiac glycosides in the milkweed to gain the toxicity for themselves. This is a fairly common adaptation in insects.
What plants attract insects?
All plants attract insects, some more than others. Obviously, a fruiting plant will attract more than a non fruiting plant, but every type of plant has at LEAST one species that will attack it. Remember, plants are the basis of the food chain, the ENTIRE food chain. plant eating insects (herbivorous) will be attracted to a plant that has the most to give them, nutritionally speaking, but any plant may be preyed upon by species adapted to feed specifically on it, like the Boll Weevil, and the Cotton plant, or Cabbages, and the Cabbage moth. Even plants that only have a couple of predator species that can eat them will attract other (insectivorous) bugs, if only to prey on the other insects there (think Ladybugs, and Aphids). So the answer to this is ALL of them attract insects.
