Non-carnivorous plants can live near carnivorous one. Carnivorous plants don't eat other plants or anything like that. What you might be referring to is the fact that carnivorous plants tend to grow in certain environments that many other plants couldn't survive in. Specifically, they grow in areas with soils that have very little nutrients. Carnivorous plants can live there because they can get the nutrients they need from their prey rather than from the soil. There are other plants that are adapted to those types of ecosystems is other ways (non-carnivorous ways), and those plants can live alongside carnivorous plants. Most plants can't live in those environments, though.

Are insectivorous plants and carnivorous plants the same?

Insectivorous plants and carnivorous plants are not exactly the same, but they both obtain nutrients by capturing and digesting prey. Insectivorous plants specifically target insects for food, whereas carnivorous plants can capture a wider range of prey, including insects, small animals, and even other plants. Additionally, some carnivorous plants have more sophisticated trapping mechanisms compared to many insectivorous plants.


What are the plants that cannot prepare their food by themselves?

Plants that cannot prepare their own food are called heterotrophic plants. These plants rely on other organisms for their nutrition, such as fungi in the case of mycoheterotrophic plants or host plants in the case of parasitic plants. Examples include Indian pipe (Monotropa uniflora) and dodder (Cuscuta spp.).


A plant which have got some features of animal?

There are plants that are carnivorous. Venus fly traps and other carnivorous plants obtain their nitrogen and other mineral by eating insects and sometimes a bigger animal. This seemingly heterotrophic behavior can be observed because they live in a poor-soil region.


Where can carnivorous plants be found growing?

Usually in bogs and other swampy areas where nitrate levels in the soil are very low.


What happens if a plant doesn't digest right?

Are you referring to carnivorous plants? If not, ignore this because other kinds of plants do not digest (they make energy through photosynthesis only). If a carnivorous plant, such as the Venus flytrap, does not digest its prey well, the plant may not get the nutrients it needs and die.
