The largest single flower belongs to Rafflesia arnoldii, or the 'Corpse flower'.It is a parasitic plant, with no visible leaves, roots, or stem. It attaches itself to a host plant to obtain water and nutrients. When in bloom, the Rafflesia emits a repulsive odor, similar to that of rotting meat. This odor attracts insects that pollinate the plant.Rafflesia arnoldii is a member of the genus Rafflesia. It is noted for producing the largest individual flower on earth. It occurs only in the rainforests of Sumatra and Borneo in the Malay Archipelago.Recent molecular taxonomy studies have resulted in assigning Rafflesia arnoldii to the family of Euphorbiaceae.The Titan Arum (Amorphophallus titanum) and Talipot palm (Corypha umbraculifera) appear to have bigger flowers, but they are technically clusters of many flowers.The world's largest sunflower stands at 32.5" wide whereas the average Rafflesia can have a flower as large as 39" wide.The Rafflesia arnoldii.The flower with the world's largest bloom is the Rafflesia arnoldii. This rare flower is found in the rainforests of Indonesia. It can grow to be 3 feet across and weigh up to 15 pounds! It is a parasitic plant, with no visible leaves, roots, or stem. It attaches itself to a host plant to obtain water and nutrients. When in bloom, the Rafflesia emits a repulsive odor, similar to that of rotting meat.

The flower rafflesia protects itself through its unique strategy of camouflage and mimicry, resembling decaying organic matter to deter herbivores. It also emits a strong odor of decaying flesh to attract flies for pollination, further enhancing its survival by ensuring reproduction.
Hydras can protect themselves from predators by utilizing various mechanisms such as camouflage, regeneration, and stinging cells called nematocysts located on their tentacles. These stinging cells release toxins upon contact with a predator, helping to deter or incapacitate them. Additionally, hydras have a fast reproduction rate, allowing them to quickly recover from predation events.
Sea otters protect themselves from predators by wrapping themselves in kelp forests where they can blend in and avoid being seen. They also have dense fur that insulates them from cold water and acts as a barrier against sharp teeth of predators. Additionally, sea otters are quick and agile swimmers, allowing them to escape from predators such as sharks and killer whales.
A barnacle latches onto a rock with its single 'foot', much like a sucker, and hangs on for dear life. It can't protect itself and has to rely on it's shell to try to protect it from any hungry predators, dogs, cats(Although unlikely), or humans that wonder by.
the crow can protect itself fron predators by summining death to take their souls

Weddell seals swim under the ice to protect themselves from predators. They live in remote habitats that also helps to protect them from predators.
by burrowing itself. Clues in the name!
