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

SICK PLANTS Hypothesis: From my research‚ I think the plant in the solution containing all nutrients will have the fastest / most successful growth‚ and the control group / water solution will have the least growth as it doesn’t have any of its necessary nutrients. Variables: The independent variable will be the solution the plants are put in to begin with. All other conditions will be kept the same‚ such as temperature‚ sunlight‚ length of shoot‚ time space left. I will have a control group
