Biology : Physiology Of Animals And Plants
Q 5 / 30
Some species of plants are insectivorous. Why?
A
Their growth in shady and dark places does not allow them to undertake sufficient photosynthesis and thus they depend on insects for nutrition.
B
They are adapted to grow in nitrogen deficient soils and thus depend on insects for sufficient nitrogenous nutrition.
C
They cannot synthesize certain vitamins themselves and depend on the insects digested by them.
D
They have remained in that particular stage of evolution as living fossils, a link between autotrophs and heterotrophs.
