Carnivorous Plants
Most plants are gifted with the ability of making their own food. Through the process of photosynthesis, leaves prepare food in the presence of sunlight and carbon dioxide. However, certain plants depend on other sources for their nutrition. Such plants are called carnivorous plants. These plants attract, catch, digest, and absorb body juices of other animals. They eat small insects and animals. Their beautiful color and sweet-smelling nectar serve as a bait to attract insects.
Many of these plants today have been identified and classified into different species. Scientists are believed to have an accurate estimate of 450 different species of carnivorous plants from across the world.
