Why do carnivorous plants eat insects?

Biology
1 answer:
Basile [38]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Meat-eating, or carnivorous, plants can trap and digest insects and other small animals. They do this to obtain the vital nitrogen that they need to grow. Most plants absorb enough nitrogen from nitrates in the soil. Carnivorous plants live in bogs, where nitrates are in short supply, so they need to obtain their nitrogen by digesting prey instead. Carnivorous plants have developed unique ways to catch insects, such as fluid-filled PITCHERS and spring-loaded traps.

Identify the mitotic phases.
Anna11 [10]
Mitosis consists of four basic phases: <em>prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase</em>. Some textbooks list five, breaking prophase into an early phase (called prophase) and a late phase (called prometaphase). These phases occur in strict sequential order, and <em>cytokinesis</em> - the process of dividing the cell contents to make two new cells - <em>starts in anaphase or telophase</em>.
