INSECTIVOROUS PLANTS An insectivorous plant‚ also called a carnivorous plant‚ captures prey items‚ such as insects‚ spiders‚ crustaceans‚ mites‚ and protozoans‚ as a nitrogen source. Many insectivorous species live in freshwater bogs‚ where nitrogen is not present in available form‚ because the pH of the water is extremely acid. The forms of entrapment by these types of plants are modified leaves. Five basic trapping mechanisms are found in carnivorous plants. 1. Pitfall traps (pitcher plants) trap prey

Genlisea Violacea is a carnivorous plant that is restricted to the areas of South America and Trinidad. (1). This species can grow when it I half or fully submerged in water. (2) They flourish best in wet habitats‚ such as marshes and swamps. (2) The top part of the trap consists of a descending stolon. (2)About midway down the stolon there is a swollen digestion chamber—the utricle--which makes the descending part of the stolon look somewhat like the neck of an ostrich that has

Parts of plants Each part of a plant has a very important function. All plants produce flowers for the same reason: to make seeds so another plant can grow. Leaves: These are the parts of the plant where food is made by photosynthesis. Leaves take in carbon dioxide from the air‚ water from the soil‚ and energy from the sunlight. During photosynthesis‚ the leaves use light energy to change carbon dioxide and water into food. (sugar) Flowers: These are the reproductive parts of

Exp. 2 Separation of Three Compounds by Extraction Introduction: The purpose of this experiment is do demonstrate the proper procedures of extraction and to develop a practical understanding of this method. In this experiment‚ extraction is used to separate a known acid‚ base‚ and neural compound from each other. The first two compounds undergo proton transfer reactions in the presence of acids or bases. Acids RCOOH‚ like benzoic acid‚ was deprotonated to form RCOO-. Bases RNH2‚ like ethyl 4-aminobenzoate

Aquatic plants: Fixed plants Fixed plants are held in place by their roots which grow in the water-bed. The Water Lily and Lotus are such plants. Their stems are long‚ hollow and light. These stems reach the surface of the water. The leaves and flowers‚ which grow from the top end of the stems‚ float upon the water. The leaves are broad with stomata on the top surface so that the water does not block them. Lotus The roots of lotus are planted in the soil of the pond or river bottom‚ while
