All of the insectivorous plants are true________________?
Correct answer: B. Autotrophes
- A. Heterotrophs
- B. Autotrophes
- C. Carnivores
- D. Saprotrophs
Explanation
Insectivorous plants carry out photosynthesis and make their own carbohydrates, so they remain autotrophs. They trap insects mainly to obtain nitrogen and other minerals, not to obtain their main energy supply. The likely mistake is choosing carnivores because these plants digest animal tissue.
