What are some carnivorous plants?
Venus Fly Trap, Pitcher plants, sundew
How does the sundew plant capture and digest its prey as part of its unique method of eating?
The sundew plant captures and digests its prey by using sticky tentacles on its leaves to trap insects. Once an insect is caught, the plant secretes enzymes to break down the insect's body for nutrients.
What similarities does a Venus fly trap and a sundew have in common?
Both the Venus flytrap and sundew are carnivorous plants that have evolved to capture and digest insects for nutrients. They attract prey using unique mechanisms; the Venus flytrap employs hinged leaves that snap shut when triggered by unsuspecting insects, while the sundew uses sticky glandular hairs on its leaves to trap prey. Additionally, both plants thrive in nutrient-poor environments and have adapted to supplement their diets through these insect-catching strategies.
What does the Venus Fly Trap plants do with the insects they catch?
By enzymatic process, they "digest" the body of the insect as nourishment.
How Does A Sundew Trap Digest And Absorb Insects?
an insect touches a leaf of a sundew plant then the leaf slowly moves and covers the insect with all those sticky stuff and then digest it and the nutrients go in the plant by tiny holes leading to the roots.
