A carnivorous (meat eating) plant is a plant that eats small animals such as flies and insects. Venus fly traps and Pitcher plants are such plants. Scientists in the UK have also recently discovered a mammal-eating plant. This plant, apparently a very rare giant pitcher plant, is believed to be the largest meat-eating flora in the world. It is green and red and has a stem that can grow up to 4ft long, and it can only be found high on the slopes of Mount Victoria in the Phillipines. It eats whole rats.
A common mistake is to call the plants insectivorous, however, as the plants are capable of digesting many more things other than insects (eg: mollusks such as slugs, avians such as humming birds, arachnids such as Spiders, and mammals such as small mice) their proper title is "carnivorous plant".
its a omnivore
The opposite of a carnivore is a herbivore because a carnivore is a meat eater, and a herbivore is a plant eater.
An example of a food chain with a plant would be: grass (plant) - grasshopper (herbivore) - frog (carnivore) - snake (carnivore) - hawk (carnivore). In this chain, the plant (grass) is consumed by the herbivore (grasshopper), which is then consumed by the frog, and so on up the chain.
Plants might get into the stomach of a carnivore if they are consumed along with the prey. This can happen when the carnivore preys on an herbivorous animal that has recently consumed plant material. Additionally, in some cases, carnivores might intentionally consume plant material for various reasons such as aiding digestion or obtaining nutrients that may be lacking in their diet.

Yes
No, they are herbivores (plant eaters). A wolf that eats the deer is a carnivore (meat eater).
The opposite of a carnivore is a herbivore because a carnivore is a meat eater, and a herbivore is a plant eater.
An example of a food chain with a plant would be: grass (plant) - grasshopper (herbivore) - frog (carnivore) - snake (carnivore) - hawk (carnivore). In this chain, the plant (grass) is consumed by the herbivore (grasshopper), which is then consumed by the frog, and so on up the chain.
The correct word is "carnivore" (meat eater). A plant eater is a herbivore.
It is none of those things. It is a plant.
No, they only eat plant material.
no it was a carnivore or plant eater
Pterodactylus was a carnivore, or meat eater. They hunted small animals like primitive mammals, lizards, insects, and fish.
