Insectivorous plants, also known as carnivorous plants, include species such as the Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula), which traps insects using modified leaves that snap shut. The pitcher plant (Sarracenia) features tubular leaves filled with digestive liquid, luring insects to their demise. Sundews (Drosera) have glandular hairs that secrete sticky droplets to trap and digest prey. These adaptations allow these plants to thrive in nutrient-poor environments by supplementing their nutrient intake through insect consumption.
