Why do insectivorous plants trap insect while they also prepare carbohydrate by photosynthesis

Biology
1 answer:
shusha [124]3 years ago
5 0

But carnivorous plants often live in "awful", nutrient-poor places. In other words, very nutrient scarce environments where they're very boggy, so most of the nutrients have probably been leached away by water. As a result, the soil is so poor that many of those trace elements that keep plants growing normally, just aren't available in appreciable amounts. So the plants need to look to the air to obtain that nutrition and they do it by catching insects because if they catch an insect, insects have got lots of iron, they've got lots of proteins, they've got lots of other micronutrients in them that the plants have adapted and evolved to make use of, and to supplement the poor source of things that are coming in through the soil.

hope this helps please make me the brainliest

The process of _____________ is modeled in the plant cell diagrams seen here.
grigory [225]

<u>Answer:</u>

The process of "Osmosis" is modeled in the plant cell diagrams seen here.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Osmosis is the natural gross migration of solvent particles into a zone of higher solute concentration via a selectively permeable membrane, in the path that seeks to balance the amounts of solvents on both the ends. Osmosis as biological membranes are semipermeable, is a critical mechanism in biological systems.

Such membranes are usually impenetrable to massive and polar molecules like polysaccharides, ions and proteins while being porous to hydrophobic or non-polar molecules like lipids and to small molecules as carbon dioxide, oxygen, nitric oxides and nitrogen.
