Learning Something Everyday - by Jessicca

 
You can learn from anything to everything every single day, if you put your heart to notice the little changes in life around you.

Fact: carnivorous plants

March 9th 2007 00:35
Plants that catch and "eat" insects are called carnivorous.

These plants fall into two groups: some have active traps with moving parts, like the Venus flytrap, but most have passive traps, catching victims on a sticky surface or drowning them in a pool of fluid, like butterworts.


Carnivorous plants live in bogs, peatlands, and swamps, where the soil is poor in nitrates and other nutrients. They get extra nutrients by catching insects, which they digest with special juices.
