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.
Animals that have a diet composed entirely of plants are known as herbivores. Even though all herbivores eat only plants, the diets of different herbivore species vary a great deal. Some herbivores are selective and only consume part of the plant, such as the fruit, leaves, nectar, seeds, sap, roots, or bark.
