- Not expecting threats insects sit on the plant. This catches them using mechanical traps or sticky substances. 
- Then, the plant produces digestive enzymes that break down proteins, fats and sugars which make up the body of the victims for simple compounds which plant can absorb.
Q#2. Carnivorous plants grow in mineral-poor soil, raise substances necessary for life from the bodies of trapped animals. They hunt animals, so that the surface on which they grow, no nutrients they need.

Answer:

Site-directed mutagenesis

Explanation:

Site-directed mutagenesis (SDM) is a technique widely used in molecular biology in order to generate site-specific, targeted changes in the DNA sequence of a gene of interest. The SDM protocol consists of using a complementary oligonucleotide (primer) that contains the desired mutation, which hybridizes to the target DNA sequence and thus can trigger the desired mutation. Nowadays, the versatile CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing system is the most used technique to produce targeted mutations in any gene of interest.
