insectivorous plants contain chlorophyll thus they can prepare their own food but they also feed own insects to fulfill their nitrogen requirements thus are called partial autotrophs and partial heterotrophs.
Insectivorous plants are called partial heterotrophs because while they can produce their own food through photosynthesis like autotrophs, they also rely on insects to supplement their nutrient intake, making them partially dependent on external food sources.
Insectivorous plants are called partial parasites because, while they obtain some nutrients from insects, they also perform photosynthesis to produce their own food. This makes them dependent on insects for certain nutrients, but they are not entirely reliant on them for survival.
Autotrophs.
Insectivorous plants, such as sundews and pitcher plants, obtain nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus from insects they capture. The availability of insects in their habitat directly impacts the nutrition and growth of insectivorous plants. Habitats with higher insect populations typically support healthier insectivorous plants compared to habitats with fewer insects.
Organisms such as plants that make their own food are called autotrophs. They utilize photosynthesis to convert sunlight into energy for growth and development.
