Question
What are traps or Insectivorous plants?
Short Note
Solution
- These plants grow in nitrogen-deficient places. In Nepenthes, the leaves are modified into a flask-like structure, which is used to attract insects and other tiny animals.
- The inner wall of the leaf secretes digestive enzymes that help to digest the insects and extract the nitrogen needed for the plant. E.g: Nepenthes.
