Answer:

To show a contrast

Explanation:

If we look at the statement closely, we will observe that people's idea of the feeding mode of Venus Fly Trap is different from the way the plant actually feeds.

People have the idea that the Venus Fly Trap eats larger animals (meat) whereas it only eats tiny insects. The transition 'despite' as used in the sentence shows a contrast between people's idea of the Venus Fly Trap and its actual feeding mode.

Why do characters often have complex motivations in stories
Aleonysh [2.5K]
Characters often have complex motivations in stories because without an interesting plot or without any true meaning given to a characters actions, the story would be meaningless. So if you think about reading a book where the main character hopes to save the world rather than go to Tescos and buy something, there will obviously be a big difference between how the story makes you, the reader, feel like.
