one of the most well-studied plants to show rudimentary memory is the venus flytrap. native to the subtropical wetlands of the eastern united states, venus fly traps have evolved the ability to obtain meat for sustenance, likely due to the lack of nitrogen in the soil. this is done by two trap-forming leaf tips that snap shut once triggered by a potential prey. on each lobe, three triggers hairs await stimulation. in order to maximize the benefit to cost ratio, the plant enables a rudimentary form of memory in which two trigger hairs must be stimulated within 30 seconds in order to result in trap closure. this system ensures that the trap only closes when potential prey is within grasp.
